Beschrijving keerzijde Owl standing right with head turned to face the viewer, rendered in the Athenian tradition. An olive sprig appears to the left of the bird. To the right, the Egyptian hieroglyph wꜣḥ ('uah', meaning 'enduring' or 'stable') appears alongside the Greek inscription AΘE, combining Egyptian and Hellenic epigraphic elements in a manner characteristic of Philistian coinage of this period. The entire design is set within an incuse square.

Aanvullende informatie

Philistian coinage of this period was largely derivative of Athenian and Persian models, struck by cities along the southern Levantine coast — Gaza, Ashkelon, and Ashdod among them — whose precise attribution remains contested. The issuing authority here cannot be confirmed with certainty, which is itself historically telling: these fractional silvers circulated through a region of overlapping administrative claims, caught between Achaemenid provincial control and vigorous local commercial traditions. The SNG ANS 6 and Copenhagen references group this type loosely without resolving the question of mint.
