<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 4515344, member: 19463&quot;]My first thought is that this might be a contemporary copy from the East rather than from Athens itself.&nbsp; I have one in this class that I have cataloged as such but I am less than secure on where to draw these lines.&nbsp; Obols and fractions were made in several styles for a couple centuries and by several &#039;authorities&#039; other than Athens. My 0.22g coin was my first tiny silver in 1989.&nbsp; I believe it started as a hemiobol but has lost a lot of mass to erosion, chipping, flaking etc.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1118810[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
