A peculiar fraction

Starting Price: 50 CHF
Hammer Price:  140 CHF
Lot 517

ASIA MINOR. Uncertain, perhaps a mint in Cilicia. 4th century BC. Obol (Silver, 12 mm, 0.67 g, 12 h). Uncertain legend Bull butting right. Rev. Uncertain legend Male figure standing left. Cf. Naumann 77, 2019, 107, otherwise unpublished. Well centered and lightly toned. Very fine.



A number of these peculiar fractions have appeared on the market in recent years, but we do not yet know from where they derive. The legends are unhelpful as they seem to be either nonsensical or indecipherable.
