| Beschrijving keerzijde | A cockerel stands to the right in a proud, upright posture, its comb, wattle, and tail feathers rendered with fine detail despite the diminutive module. A crescent appears above the bird in the upper field. The entire design is enclosed within a pelleted border set within a shallow incuse square, a hallmark of early Troadic silver coinage. No legend is present. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Dardanos was a minor coastal polis in the Troad, situated near the strategic narrows of the Hellespont, and its autonomous coinage was produced during a period when the region passed through successive Persian, Macedonian, and local dynastic control. The hemiobol — the smallest practical denomination in the Greek silver system — was minted here in tiny quantities, likely for local market transactions or small-scale religious offerings rather than any meaningful interregional commerce.
HGC 6, 892 records this type as rare. Coins from Dardanos of any denomination are infrequently encountered, and at this weight and diameter losses to corrosion and misidentification are common.
