SIKYONIA, Sikyon, Circa 360s-340s/330AR Obol, 0.69g, 9h
O - Dove alighting right; above tail, Σ
R - Dove flying to right; above tail, Ε
The obols of Sikyon were struck in very large numbers, understandably so because they were very popular and circulated throughout the Peloponnesos and in many places in Central Greece where the Aeginetic standard was also used. Thus, the vast majority of known Sikyonian obols are in worn condition. Pieces like this one are exceptional.
