Æ10

正面描述	Bare head of Artemis facing right, hair drawn back, rendered in low relief in the archaic Greek provincial style typical of Kean civic coinage. The portrait is relatively simple in execution, filling the central field of the flan without legend or additional device.

背面描述	A bee depicted frontally at center, its wings spread symmetrically, enclosed within a wreath of olive or laurel branches curving to either side. The civic legend ΙΟΥ, abbreviating the city name Ioulis, appears flanking the bee within the wreath, in Greek characters.

附加信息	Ioulis was the principal city of Keos, an island that punched well above its weight in antiquity — birthplace of the poets Simonides and Bacchylides, and home to a famously strict law requiring citizens over sixty to drink hemlock rather than consume resources in old age. The city issued bronze coinage independently before Keos was absorbed into the administrative orbit of Athens and later the Macedonian successors. At under a gram, this piece would have served purely local exchange.
