| Beschrijving keerzijde | An owl stands to right in three-quarter facing posture, its head turned directly toward the viewer with large schematic eyes rendered in relief; the bird's wings are folded against its body and its talons are clearly delineated. The entire design is contained within a shallow incuse square of irregular outline, a characteristic feature of small hammered fractional silver coinage from Cilicia of the fourth century BC. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Cilicia in the fourth century produced a sprawling, poorly documented coinage from numerous small mints, many of which remain unattributed after more than a century of scholarship. At 0.18g, this denomination was the smallest practical unit of Greek silver coinage — a quarter of an obol, itself already a fraction — and would have served daily transactions too minor for larger silver to handle economically.
The Sunrise Collection reference places it within a well-documented group, but the issuing city is still debated.
