| Beschrijving keerzijde | An eagle with wings spread and head turned, perched atop a thunderbolt oriented horizontally, rendered in bold, naturalistic relief characteristic of Tarentine coinage. The eagle's plumage is finely detailed, with individual feathers clearly articulated across the wings and body. The ethnic inscription TAPANTIΩN (of the Tarentines) runs along the right field, while the magistrate's name or abbreviation ΣΩΣ appears in the field. The composition emphasizes the Tarentine civic pride through this iconic Zeusian symbol. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Tarentum struck these smaller fractional issues during one of the most politically volatile stretches in the city's history — the period bracketed by the expulsion of Spartan regent Cleonymus around 303 BC and the eventual invitation of Pyrrhus of Epirus in 281 BC, a decision that would drag the city into a decade of catastrophic war with Rome. The drachm fabric sits well within the Vlasto sequence documenting stylistic evolution across this period, and collectors working that reference will find meaningful die-link opportunities within the 1075–1083 range.
