Description
Ionia, Miletus, (c.530-510 B.C.), silver twelth stater or obol(?), (0.765 grams), obv. forepart of lion and legs to left, rev. star ornament within incuse square, (S.3533, BMC 34). Nearly extremely fine and very rare for this weight.
The lower weight for this coin with its full flan suggests the issue to be a tritartemorion (3/4 obol). However it is described as an obol as only this denomination appears in the published literature.
