Beschrijving voorzijde Laureate head of Zeus facing right, rendered in archaic Thessalian style with defined facial features including a beard and thick hair bound by a laurel wreath. The portrait is set within a broad, plain field typical of early Greek bronze coinage. The modeling is bold and slightly rough, consistent with provincial hammered bronze production of the fourth century BC.

Aanvullende informatie

Kierion was a minor Thessalian city in the Histiaiotis region, and its bronze issues of this period are among the more obscure products of fourth-century Greek civic minting. The city is better known from ancient sources as a dependency within the shifting political structures of Thessaly than as an independent numismatic authority, which makes its autonomous bronze output genuinely notable.

The BCD Thessaly II reference places this among a tightly catalogued group assembled from one of the most rigorous Thessalian collections ever formed.
