<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Pavlos, post: 7738038, member: 96635&quot;]At that weight it is indeed a hemiobol, the newest listing seems to be correct. The references are the same between the two listings, so it doesn&#039;t seem to be a new publication. Circa 450-400 BC is also the correct date, these coins came after the Archaic coinage of Kyzikos featuring predominantly the tunny fish with an incuse square on the back.</p><p><br /></p><p>Same case as this coin I have, it was listed as a tetartemorion, but looking at the weight, it must be a hemiobol. I see example like these listed at both denominations as well.</p><p><img src="https://www.cointalk.com/attachments/upload_2021-4-6_23-11-55-png.1284681/" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><b>Islands off Mysia, Lesbos, Methymna.
