Reversbeschreibung	A large bunch of grapes pendant from a vine, rendered in high relief at the center of the field. The cluster is depicted with individual berries rendered in a stylized, granular manner. The Greek ethnic legend HΡAKΛEΩTΩN is inscribed around the design, partially encircling the bunch of grapes, identifying the issuing city of Heraclea. The overall composition is characteristic of Ionian civic bronze coinage of the Hellenistic period.

Zusätzliche Informationen	Heraclea at Latmus occupied an unusual position in the ancient world — originally a coastal city, it was progressively landlocked as the Latmian Gulf silted up during the Hellenistic period, a process that eventually stranded the harbor and reshaped the city's economic identity entirely. The broad date range reflects the city's shifting allegiances, passing under Seleucid, Ptolemaic, and ultimately Roman influence across these two centuries. SNG Copenhagen 380 places this piece within a well-documented municipal bronze series, though the city's output remains understudied compared to more prominent Ionian mints.
