Historical Context: This silver Didrachm, issued by the Greek city of Velia in Magna Graecia between 400 and 350 BC, signifies a period of significant prosperity. Velia, a democracy, maintained a powerful presence in Southern Italy, known for its strategic location and intellectual heritage. This era saw Velia navigating complex political landscapes while continuing to issue coinage of exceptional quality, essential for its robust trade networks and economic stability in the western Greek world.
