背面描述	A goat in kneeling posture facing right, its head turned back to the left in a characteristic contraposto arrangement typical of Cilician coinage of this period. The animal's horns and facial features are rendered with careful incised detail within a shallow incuse field. An ivy leaf appears above the goat's body in the upper field, serving as a die-cutter's symbol and a hallmark of the Kelenderis mint series.

附加信息	Kelenderis was a Cilician coastal city whose coinage punched well above its political weight — the mint produced some of the most artistically sophisticated small silver of the fifth century, at a time when the city likely operated under loose Achaemenid oversight without being fully absorbed into Persian administrative coinage systems. The obol denomination served local market exchange, probably moving through the harbor economy of a port that Strabo later identified as a significant anchorage on the southern Anatolian coast. SNG Levante 13 and SNG BN 68 represent the die documentation most collectors rely on, though the series remains incompletely catalogued relative to its stater counterparts.
