Kyrenaika, Barke AR Obol. Circa 435-308 BC. Head of Apollo Karneios(?) right; BAP (retrograde) behind / Silphium plant. BMC 169b = Traité III 1901 (Kyrene); SNG Copenhagen -. 0.64g, 9mm, 3h.

Very Fine. Extremely Rare; possibly the second known specimen.

From the inventory of a UK dealer.

The specimen recorded in Traité and the British Museum catalogues was attributed to Kyrene however, the clear obverse inscription on this example allows reattribution to Barke.
