Chalkon

正面描述	Helmeted head of Athena facing right, wearing a Corinthian helmet adorned with a crest; the goddess is depicted in fine archaic-transitional style characteristic of Achaean civic bronzes. The portrait is rendered with careful attention to anatomical detail, with the helmet cheek-guard framing the face. A legend in Greek characters runs along the upper periphery of the field.

附加信息	Aigeira was a member of the Achaean League on the southern shore of the Corinthian Gulf, a small polis that struck bronze small change during a period of acute political pressure from both Macedon and the competing ambitions of Argos and Sparta. Independent civic bronze coinage of this scale was common across the Peloponnese in the fourth century, produced locally to service everyday market transactions that silver fractions were too valuable to handle efficiently. The SNG Copenhagen 127 reference places this piece within a well-documented but thinly studied series.
