| Beschrijving voorzijde | Facing head of Apollo, rendered in three-quarter view turned slightly to the right, with long wavy hair falling loosely about the face and neck. The youthful, idealized effigy displays finely modelled facial features characteristic of mid-4th century BCE Greek die-cutting, with large almond-shaped eyes, a straight nose, and slightly parted lips. The hair is articulated with individual strands radiating outward from the crown, framing the face in the Rhodian artistic tradition. No legend appears in the field. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Idrieus governed Caria from 351 to 344 BC as a loyal Achaemenid vassal, yet minted his own coinage with a confidence that exceeded the usual satrap's remit. He was the brother and successor of Mausolus — whose tomb gave us the word "mausoleum" — and continued the dynasty's shrewd policy of projecting Hellenic cultural prestige while remaining politically subordinate to Persia. The tiny trihemiobol denomination places this squarely in everyday transactional use rather than in the prestige issues for which the Hecatomnid court is better remembered.
