Beschrijving voorzijde Facing head of Athena Parthenos, rendered in the three-quarter view slightly turned to the left, wearing a Attic helmet pushed back to reveal the face. The goddess's wavy locks fall freely to either side of the face, framing well-modelled facial features rendered in a bold, plastic style characteristic of Thessalian coinage of the early fourth century BC. The field is plain, with no legend.

Aanvullende informatie

Pharsalos was among the most powerful poleis in Thessaly during the early fourth century, its influence tied closely to the Aleuadai aristocracy and the city's role as a hub of the Thessalian League. Bronze small change of this type circulated in a region where coinage adoption lagged behind southern Greece — the Thessalians relied heavily on barter and livestock exchange well into the classical period, making urban bronze issues like this chalkon relatively localized in their reach.

The BCD collection reference places this among a well-documented sequence; Lavva's die study identified limited obverse die use across the series, suggesting small, episodic production runs rather than sustained mint output.
