Marathos, Phoenicia. AE 13.5 hemichalkous. 3.04 g. Dated local year 32, 227-227 BC. 

Laureate head of Zeus right.
Trophy, date in Phoenician script in left field.

Duyrat, Ateliers, 83 var. (date); HGC 199 var. (ditto); DCA 828 var. (ditto). 
Extremely rare, the second known example of this series, the 
first with this date. 

The date on the Berlin example listed by Imhoof-Blumer in NZ 
1901 (p. 9, 2, pl. I, 13) is unclear, but is at least year 
33. Our coin has a clear date. 
Imhoof-Blumer and others described the obverse head as Zeus, 
but the clearer features on our coin resemble more a 
Hellenistic portrait than a deity. Whose portrait it may be, 
though, is uncertain.
