Additional information

Kisthene was a minor coastal settlement in Mysia, on the northwestern Anatolian seaboard, whose coinage output was limited and tightly bound to a brief window of autonomous activity before Macedonian and later Pergamene influence absorbed the region's smaller mints. The SNG France 1164A reference places this piece among a handful of known specimens — Kisthene never struck in volume, and tetrobols attributable to this polis remain genuinely scarce in any collection context.
