Triobol

Teos, an Ionian Greek city on the Aegean coast of Anatolia, had by the early fourth century already produced one of antiquity's most famous expatriate communities — its entire population twice abandoned the city en masse rather than submit to foreign rule, first to Thracian Abdera around 545 BC under Persian pressure, and again later. The triobol denomination served fractional commerce in a region where Athenian owls dominated larger transactions but local silver filled the gaps.

SNG Copenhagen 1444 provides the principal reference point for attribution of this scarce civic issue.
