| Beschrijving keerzijde | Forepart of a bull advancing to the right, with lowered head and prominent horns rendered in a compact, stylized manner characteristic of small-denomination Greek coinage. The body is depicted in three-quarter view, with musculature suggested by bold, simplified modeling. The abbreviated ethnic inscription IΣT appears to the right of the bull in the field, identifying the issuing city of Histiaea. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Histiaea, the northern Euboean city resettled by Athens after the brutal expulsion of its population around 446 BC — punishment for killing Athenian cleruchs — eventually recovered enough autonomy to strike its own coinage. These tiny silver obols represent that independent civic output, likely produced over a long span rather than in discrete authorised issues, which explains the considerable variation in fabric and die quality found across surviving examples.
