    Fun find in a CNG mixed lot!

    Asia minor, uncertain
    4th century BC?
    AR 11mm, 1.09g
    Diobol, trihemiobol, or maybe Carian-standard obol?
    Obv: Head of lion right
    Rev: Forepart of boar right
    Unpublished. Several in CNG Archives:

    Some specimens have control marks; I have seen a monogram beneath the boar, or a scorpion behind it.

    Not much else to say about it, but I'd welcome additional info! Anyone else have one to share?
