| Beschrijving voorzijde | Head of Athena facing right, wearing a crested Corinthian helmet pushed back on the head, with flowing hair visible beneath. The helmet crest extends prominently across the upper field, rendered in fine detail characteristic of South Italian Greek coinage. The Greek magistrate monogram ΕΥ appears in the upper field to the right of the crest. The portrait is executed in high relief with confident, stylized engraving typical of the Lokrian bronze series of the early third century BC. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Lokroi Epizephyrioi occupied an unusual position among the Greek colonies of Bruttium — founded by Locrians from mainland Greece around 680 BC, the city maintained a stubborn independence through the fourth and third centuries while neighboring poleis fell to Italic pressure or Syracusan ambition. This issue dates to the period bracketed by the city's alliance with Agathokles of Syracuse and the arrival of Pyrrhos in southern Italy, a decade during which every coastal Greek city was forced to choose sides repeatedly and often disastrously.
