454, Lot: 141. Estimate $75.

TROAS, Kolone. 4th century BC. AR Obol(?) (7.5mm, 0.42 g). Helmeted head of Athena right / Stellate pattern in linear square within incuse square. SNG Arikantürk 418–25; otherwise unpublished in the standard references. Toned, porous, minor double strike on obverse. Near VF. Rare.


The attribution of this series to Kolone, though not certain, is based on a similarity of the types to bronze issues of the city bearing its ethnic. However, an attribution to a city in Troas is assured, due to the amount of this type found in the area (cf. SNG Arikantürk 416–33).
