| Beschrijving voorzijde | Mature bearded head of Dionysos in right profile, crowned with a naturalistic ivy wreath bearing leaves and berries rendered in fine relief. The deity's flowing curled hair falls behind the neck, and the beard is elaborately rendered with carefully delineated locks. The portrait displays the accomplished Hellenistic die-cutting style characteristic of Cycladic mints of the mid-third century BC, with strong facial modelling and expressive musculature. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Leokrates is known from the magistrate's name appearing on Naxian coinage of the mid-third century BC, a period when the Cycladic islands operated under the loose suzerainty of Ptolemaic Egypt following the Battle of Cos. The Cratérophores reference situates this piece within a specialized French corpus focused on wine-vessel bearing coinage — fitting for Naxos, whose civic identity was bound tightly to the cult of Dionysos and whose island economy depended heavily on viticulture and Aegean trade.
