| Beschrijving keerzijde | Apollo standing facing, nude or lightly draped, holding a laurel branch in one hand and a bow in the other, consistent with standard Apolline iconography on Boeotian civic bronze coinage. The figure is rendered in a simple, linear style characteristic of small provincial bronzes of the early Imperial period. The abbreviated civic legend ΤΑΝΑ appears in the field, referencing the polis of Tanagra. The flan is compact and irregularly struck. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Tanagra's civic bronze issues under Tiberius belong to a modest wave of Greek city coinage that persisted into the early imperial period largely because Rome had no interest in suppressing small-denomination local bronze — it filled a transactional gap the imperial mint ignored. Boeotian cities like Tanagra retained enough autonomy in this period to strike in the emperor's name while maintaining their own civic identity in the reverse type.
The I#1318 reference places this within a thinly documented group; die-linked specimens are rarely encountered, making provenance chains difficult to establish.
