Obol

Kleitor was a minor Arkadian polis tucked into the highlands northwest of Mantineia, producing coinage in the fifth century that survives today in numbers small enough to make any example genuinely scarce. The BCD Peloponnesos collection, assembled by a single dedicated collector over decades and sold through Leu Numismatik in 2020, provided the primary reference framework for exactly these obscure Arkadian mints — many of which would otherwise lack any systematic catalog treatment at all.

At 0.88g, this obol represents the fractional end of Kleitor's output, likely produced for local market transactions rather than regional trade.
