AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Dynasts of Lycia.
Perikles (Ca. 380-360 BC).
Æ (Bronze, 10 mm, 1.14 g).

Obv: Forepart of a horse to left.
Rev: 𐊓𐊁-𐊕𐊆-𐊋𐊍 ('Perikle' in Lycian). Triskeles.

Reference: SNG von Aulock 4262.

Perikles ruled from Limyra in eastern Lycia during the early fourth century BC, extending his power westward at the expense of rival dynasts. His ambitions challenged Persian authority and marked a final assertion of Lycian dynastic independence. Around 360 BC, his rule ended as Persian control was re-established. His coinage, bearing his name in Lycian script, reflects a local identity that endured alongside strong Greek cultural influences.
