Æ11

Beschrijving voorzijde	Laureate head of Apollo facing right, rendered in the archaic-to-classical Greek style with fine hair detail and a wreath of laurel encircling the head. Below the neck truncation, a tunny fish is depicted swimming to the right, serving as a civic symbol associated with Miletopolis. The flan is compact and irregularly shaped, typical of early Greek bronze coinage. The relief, though worn, preserves the principal features of the deity's effigy with clarity.

Aanvullende informatie	Miletopolis, a minor city in Mysia near the Macestus River, struck small bronzes like this throughout the fourth century under shifting political pressures — first Achaemenid suzerainty, then the disruptions of Alexander's campaign through Asia Minor after 334 BC. Municipal bronze coinage of this scale served intensely local needs; it rarely traveled far and survives almost exclusively from the immediate region.
