| Additional information |
Atrax was a minor Thessalian polis on the left bank of the Peneios river, and its bronze coinage is among the scarcest civic issues from the region — the city never achieved the commercial weight of Larissa or Pharsalos, and its autonomous output was correspondingly limited. The BCD collection, when sold at Leu in 2006, provided the most systematic public accounting of Thessalian bronzes ever assembled, and this type's placement at lot 1028 reflects how thinly represented Atrax was even within that extraordinary holding.
