Uncertain (BC 4th cent) Persian King 1 - Obol577 viewsca 400-350 BC. AR Obol (0.71g, 9h). Head of female facing slightly left / Persian king, holding knife, bow and quiver on back, fighting griffin. Unpublished. Good VF, toned, light porosity, a few light scratches.
Note that on the reverse of this coin, the king is fighting a griffin rather than the usual winged lion. While the king-lion type is known on a few rare issues of Cilicia, it is commonly found on the early coinages of Phoenicia. The king-griffin type, however, is apparently unknown as a coin-type.![2](images/rate_full.png) ![2](images/rate_full.png) ![2](images/rate_empty.png) ![2](images/rate_empty.png) ![2](images/rate_empty.png) (6 votes)
