| Beschrijving voorzijde | Youthful female head in three-quarter facing view turned slightly to left, rendered in fine archaic-influenced style. The hair is elaborately dressed and bound in a high sphendone, ornamented with a palmette motif, with individual wavy locks framing the face. A pendant earring is visible at the neck. The portrait is set within a broad incuse circle, with the flan exhibiting characteristic irregular hammered fabric. The modelling of the facial features is delicate, with almond-shaped eye and softly defined chin consistent with late 5th- to 4th-century Cilician engraving traditions. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Cilicia in the fourth century BC was a patchwork of semi-autonomous cities and dynasts operating under the loose umbrella of Achaemenid Persian authority, each permitted — or at least tolerated — in striking their own small silver. The inability to assign this obol to a specific mint is not unusual; many Cilician issues from this period resist firm attribution because civic identity was sometimes deliberately ambiguous, and because the same engravers moved between workshops.
Göktürk's corpus remains the most systematic attempt to sort these unattributed Cilician fractions, though even that work leaves dozens of types in provisional categories.
