Aanvullende informatie

Zakynthos, the Ionian island off the western Peloponnese, struck its own silver coinage during the early fifth century despite being a relatively modest polis by any measure. The island's position on Aegean trade routes running toward Sicily and southern Italy likely drove the practical need for locally recognized currency. HGC 6, 220 is not a common type — surviving examples are few enough that die studies remain incomplete.
