Mothone, Messenia. AE Dichalkon (19 mm, 3.67 g), c. third quarter of 4th Century BC (?).
Obv. Hepaistos running right, holding torch.
Rev. MO within shallow, circular incuse.
MG pp. 170-171; SNG Cop. 537; BCD Peloponnesos 803 (this coin).
Of the greatest rarity. Weak strike on obverse, otherwise, pleasant green patina and good fine.

The autonomous coinage of Mothone - a small port city in the southwest of Messenia - belongs to the rarest of all Peloponnesian issues.
