| 正面描述 | A Phoenician pentekonter (fifty-oared war galley) depicted in left profile, its hull and oar banks rendered in schematic horizontal lines conveying the vessel's forward motion across stylized wave forms below. The compact flan constrains the design, yet the characteristic multi-tiered hull structure of the warship remains identifiable. No inscription or exergual legend is present. The rendering is typical of the miniaturist engraving tradition employed at the Sidonian mint during the late fifth and early fourth centuries BC. |

| 背面描述 | A Persian king or heroic figure shown standing in three-quarter view to the right, engaged in combat with a rearing lion. The figure is rendered in the Achaemenid court style, wearing a long robe and kandys, and appears to grasp or subdue the lion with outstretched arms. A small circular device, identified in the catalog as the letter 'ayin' or a control mark, appears in the field between the two combatants. The scene closely follows the iconographic convention of the royal lion-hunt motif known from Achaemenid glyptic and coinage of Sidon under Baalshillem II. |

Baalshillem II ruled Sidon as a client king under Achaemenid Persian authority, a relationship that shaped the coinage directly — the fractional silver issues of this period reflect a local Phoenician monetary tradition operating within, and partially subordinate to, the Persian imperial economy. At this scale, sixteenth-shekel fractions served retail and market functions that larger denominations could not.
HGC 10, 240 is among the smaller subdivisions in the Sidonian series, and survivors in any condition are genuinely scarce.
