| Beschrijving voorzijde | Helmeted head of Athena in right profile, wearing an Attic helmet adorned with a griffin crest, rendered in fine archaic-to-classical style. The hair is carefully detailed, falling in loose curls beneath the helmet rim along the neck. The facial features are finely engraved, with a prominent nose, well-defined eye, and slightly parted lips, conveying the idealized divine effigy characteristic of 4th-century Aeolian coinage. The relief is high and well-centered within the round flan. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Myrhina was a small Aeolian city on the western coast of Asia Minor, and its civic coinage from this period reflects the fragmented autonomy that characterized the region under loose Achaemenid suzerainty — local mints striking in silver without Persian interference so long as tribute flowed. The hemidrachm denomination placed it squarely in everyday commercial use rather than interstate trade.
SNG Copenhagen 213 remains the standard reference for this type, with the Copenhagen collection's Aeolian holdings assembled largely from 19th-century Ottoman-era excavation lots.
