LEVANTINE REGION, Uncertain. 4th century BC. AR Obol (8.5mm, 0.6 g, 3h). Imitating Athens. Helmeted head of Athena right, with profile eye / Owl standing right, head facing; [olive spray and crescent to left?]. Unpublished in the standard references. Near VF, toned, off center, struck with worn dies.

The obverse of this piece imitates the Pi-style issues of Athens, while the reverse imitates the earlier, classical style issues, which is unlike most Athenian-imitative issues, as they typically copy the appropriate obverse-reverse varieties.
