Beschrijving voorzijde Laureate and bearded head of Zeus facing right, rendered in confident archaic-influenced style characteristic of Thessalian bronze coinage. The laureate wreath is depicted with individual leaves arranged around the crown, with curling locks of hair visible beneath. The facial features are boldly modeled, with a strong jaw, pronounced brow, and deep-set eye typical of mid-fourth century Greek die engraving. No legend appears on the obverse; the field is plain.

Aanvullende informatie

Halos was a Thessalian city with a troubled history — destroyed by Parmenion under Philip II of Macedon around 346 BC, which effectively sets the hard terminus for this issue. The city's destruction is recorded by Demosthenes, who was present at the peace negotiations that year. Bronze civic coinage of this kind from Halos is scarce precisely because production ceased so abruptly.
