Additional information

Dikaia was a small Thasian colonial settlement on the Thracian coast near the Strymon estuary, and its bronze issues are poorly documented precisely because the city's political autonomy was intermittent — squeezed between Thasian overlordship and Macedonian expansion throughout the fourth century. The Schönert-Geiss corpus leaves this type unnumbered, which typically signals either a newly identified specimen or one known from too few examples to establish a coherent series.
