Additional information

Kebren was a minor Troad settlement whose coinage output was small, short-lived, and almost entirely confined to the fifth century BC. The city disappears from numismatic record well before the Macedonian consolidation of the region, which alone explains the rarity of surviving pieces. SNG von Aulock 7619 and Rosen 533 are among the handful of die-linked specimens that anchor the attribution to Kebren at all — without that concordance, the issuing authority would be genuinely contested.
