Beschrijving voorzijde Forepart of a lion advancing to the right, with head turned back to the left in profile, rendered in bold archaic relief. The lion's musculature and mane are summarily but vigorously modeled, characteristic of Karian civic coinage of the late fifth century BC. The flan is irregular and slightly off-center, as typical of this small hammered denomination.

Aanvullende informatie

Mylasa, positioned inland from the Aegean coast of Caria, operated under Persian satrap influence throughout this period yet maintained its own civic coinage — an arrangement that was common among Carian cities but nonetheless required tacit approval from Achaemenid authorities. The hemiobol denomination served the lowest practical end of daily market exchange, which is why survivors in any condition are genuinely scarce; these were not savings coins.

The SNG Kayhan reference ties this piece to a corpus assembled largely from Turkish collections, giving it firmer geographic provenance than many Carian bronzes and silvers catalogued in older Western European holdings.
