Hemiobol

正面描述	Radiate pattern composed of multiple rays emanating outward from a central raised pellet, creating a stylized sun or star motif filling the entire field. The rays are rendered in low relief with slightly rounded edges, lending the design an archaic, almost floral character. The irregular flan edge is characteristic of early Ionian hammered coinage. No legend or inscription is present. The overall composition is bold and geometric, typical of the archaic civic coinage of Erythrai.

附加信息	Erythrai, one of the twelve cities of the Ionian League, occupied a strategically exposed position on the western Anatolian coast. The chronological bracket for this issue places its minting squarely within the aftermath of the Persian Wars — possibly even during the years when Ionian cities were actively reasserting autonomy following the Greek victory at Mykale in 479 BC, which ended Persian control of the Aegean coastline. At 0.25g, the hemiobol was the smallest practical denomination in local silver coinage, used for the most granular transactions the market required. SNG Copenhagen 593 remains the standard reference point for attribution of this type.
