Obol

正面描述	Facing left, the archaic head of a female figure rendered in profile, wearing a close-fitting helmet or cap that covers the crown and nape of the neck. The facial features are boldly modelled in the early Archaic Greek style, with a prominent eye, defined brow ridge, and slightly parted lips. The neck is bare, and the overall relief is high, consistent with Phokaian coinage of the late Archaic period. No legend or inscription appears in the field.

附加信息	Phokaia's coinage was among the earliest struck in the Greek world, and the city's minters worked in an unusual tradition — electrum fractions dominated local production for generations before silver issues like this obol appeared. The switch reflects either shifting trade demands or metal availability pressures as Persian control over Ionia tightened following the failed Ionian Revolt of 499–494 BC, which devastated the region's economy and civic infrastructure. The SNG von Aulock reference range spanning three catalog numbers suggests minor die variations across the archaic series rather than a single unified type.
