| Beschrijving keerzijde | A large crescent open downward occupies the upper field, beneath which a six-rayed star is centrally placed. The ethnic legend ΦΑΡΚ and ΔΟΝΙΟ (abbreviated form of ΦΑΡΚΑΔΟΝΙΩΝ) is divided across the field in two lines, rendered in archaic Greek characters. The design is bold and schematic, typical of small Thessalian bronze civic coinage of the early fourth century BC. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Pharkadon was a minor polis in Thessaliotis, the westernmost of Thessaly's four tetrads, and its autonomous bronze coinage is among the more obscure municipal issues of the region. The city sat along the Peneios river and held enough local standing to mint, but never enough to produce issues in quantity — which explains why even the BCD collection, the most comprehensive Thessalian hoard ever assembled, recorded this type under a single lot with variants noted but not fully resolved.
The "var." qualifiers against all three references suggest this piece diverges in die detail from the canonical examples — worth cross-checking against the Rogers plate specimens.
