Diobol - Wekhssere I

Wekhssere I ruled as one of the minor dynasts of Lycia during the mid-fifth century BC, a period when the region functioned as a loose collection of semi-autonomous principalities nominally under Achaemenid Persian suzerainty following Cimon's failed attempt to consolidate Athenian control over the southern Anatolian coast. The dynastic coinages of this period are among the earliest indigenous silver issues from Lycia, predating the more standardized output of later rulers like Perikle and Mithrapata by several decades.

Müseler's corpus remains the primary reference for these dynastic issues, and V,17 is a sparsely documented variety.
