Karia Uncertain (BC 450-400) boar/dog - Hemiobol489 viewsca 480/70-430 BC. AR Hemiobol (6mm, 0.27g, 12h). Forepart of boar right / Leashed head and neck of hound left. Good VF, light porosity. Very rare.
Babelon (Traité des monnaies Grecques et Romaines) describes the reverse as a wolf with a crescent before it, which would be easy to misinterpret from the poorly preserved specimen he plated. On the current and following lot, however, it is clear the animals are leashed. This and the following two lots no doubt refer to the royal hunt, with the prey on the obverse and the hunting companion – a hound – on the reverse.
