Additional information

Kebren was a minor Aeolian city in the Troad, inland from the coast near the Skamander River, and its coinage is among the scarcest of the small autonomous mints operating in that region during the fifth century. The city disappears almost entirely from the numismatic record by the mid-fourth century, likely absorbed into the orbit of larger Troad powers.

Klein 312 is not a commonly encountered reference, and auction appearances of attributed Kebrene obols in any condition are infrequent enough that population data remains thin.
