| Beschrijving voorzijde | Female head facing left, rendered in fine archaic-to-classical style with delicate facial features and large almond-shaped eye. The hair is bound in a sakkos or head covering drawn tightly across the crown, with a loose curl visible near the ear and nape. The modeling of the cheek and chin is smooth and naturalistic, characteristic of high-quality Phokaian electrum coinage of the fourth century BC. The portrait fills the flan with confident artistry, with no inscription or legend present in the field. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Phokaia's electrum hektai were produced under a remarkable bilateral agreement with the neighboring city of Mytilene on Lesbos, the two cities alternating issue by issue so that each mint's coins would be accepted across both trading zones. This arrangement, attested in an inscription and dated to around 394 BC, is one of the few documented monetary treaties surviving from the Greek world.
Bodenstedt 100 falls in the later phase of that alliance, which collapsed definitively when Alexander's campaigns disrupted the Aegean monetary order in the 320s.
