| 正面描述 | Draped bust of Athena Kranaia facing right, wearing a Corinthian helmet set back on the head; the bust is rendered in a bold, somewhat provincial style. The design is framed by a prominent dotted border running around the entire field, characteristic of late Hellenistic Phokian civic coinage. |

Elatea, the principal city of Phocis, had lost much of its strategic importance after its brutal sack by Philip II of Macedon in 338 BC — an event so alarming to Athens that Demosthenes famously described the city's terror upon hearing the news. By the late Republican period when this bronze was struck, the city was a shadow of its former self, minting small civic bronzes more out of civic habit than economic necessity, under the loose administrative umbrella of Roman provincial oversight in Achaia.
