Note from John Lavender on January 10, 2009 - These are generally all called obols. There are two chronological groupings. The SNG Copenhagen 246 specimen is later; this specimen is earlier. The later ones are lighter and more variable in weight (about 0.6-0.9 g), and often have a spear behind the shoulder of Athena.
