Hekte

Phokaia shared a minting agreement with Mytilene on Lesbos for electrum hektes, with the two cities alternating issues in a arrangement that persisted for well over a century. The precise terms of that agreement remain debated, but the coins themselves show enough consistency in fabric and weight standard to confirm coordinated production rather than coincidence.

Bodenstedt 112 falls within the later phase of the series, cut short when the Persian-brokered Peace of Antalcidas and subsequent political pressures disrupted Phokaian autonomy. Electrum coinage of this type ceased entirely around 326 BC, never to resume.
