Obol

正面描述	Nude or lightly draped horseman galloping to right, wearing a broad-brimmed petasos and billowing chlamys cloak; the rider sits astride a spirited horse rendered in full gallop, with all four legs extended. The figure is depicted in a lively, dynamic pose characteristic of Cilician satrapal coinage of the fourth century BC. No legend or inscription appears in the field.

附加信息	Cilicia in the fourth century produced an extraordinary proliferation of small silver fractions from cities, satraps, and dynasts often impossible to distinguish with certainty — a direct consequence of the region's position as a nexus between Persian administrative coinage and Greek mercantile practice. Many of these issues served to pay mercenary troops, whose employers changed frequently enough that local mint identities became almost incidental. The Brindley references place this piece within a recognized grouping, but attribution to a specific city remains contested in the literature.
