Psophis, Peloponnesos. AR Trihemiobol (10 mm, 1.21 g), c. 460s/440s BC.
Obv. The Keryneian Hind, with horns, running to right.
Rev. Fish swimming transversely to right in dotted square in linear frame within an incuse square.

Extremely rare. Somewhat rough surfaces, otherwise, good very fine.

A note from BCD: Most of the known Psophis fractions are obols, trihemiobols (showing the entire stag on the obverse) are extremely rare and practically never offered for sale.
