CILICIA. Uncertain mint, probably Tarsos. Circa 370-334 BC. Obol (Silver, 11 mm, 0.76 g, 6 h). Head of youthful Herakles facing, turned slightly to the left, wearing a lion skin headdress tied under his chin. Rev. Female head (Hera? Tyche?) to left, wearing a turreted crown ornamented with two discs and and an acanthus leaf, an earring with three pendants, and a pearl necklace. SNG Levante 242 (in the sylloge this coin is inexplicably given a reference, in error, to Traité II, 2, 1379). Some pitting, otherwise, nearly extremely fine.

From a Central European collection.
