| Beschrijving voorzijde | Griffin seated to left in a characteristic heraldic posture, its right forepaw raised, with prominent folded wings rendered in fine detail. The creature's leonine haunches and aquiline head are well modelled in high relief, conveying the vigorous artistic style typical of late Classical Abderite coinage. The ethnic legend ΑΒΔΗ ΡΙΤΕΩΝ is distributed in the field around the griffin, partially above and below the central device. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Abdera's coinage followed an unusual civic practice of naming the issuing magistrate prominently, making pieces like this one attributable to a specific annual official — Pythokleos — within a remarkably narrow window. The city's mint was highly active in the late fourth century, producing fractional silver for regional trade along the Thracian coast even as Macedonian influence tightened around it following Philip II's campaigns in the region.
May's corpus remains the essential reference for Abderite fractions, and the HGC cross-reference to 1227e confirms this as a well-documented but genuinely scarce type within the magistrate series.
