| Beschrijving voorzijde | Archaic-style bust of Hera in right profile, wearing a stephane (diadem crown) and a pendant earring; the hair is drawn back and tied in a queue at the nape of the neck. The facial features are rendered in a strong, archaic idiom characteristic of early fifth-century Arkadian coinage. The field is plain and unlettered. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Heraia was a small Arcadian polis in the upper Alpheus valley, and its coinage is among the earliest from the interior Peloponnese — a region where most communities relied on Corinthian or Aeginetan currency well into the fifth century. That Heraia struck its own silver at all reflects a degree of civic ambition unusual for a town of its modest political weight. The BCD Peloponnesos collection, assembled by a single private collector over decades, remains the definitive reference for this series; institutional holdings rarely match its depth for Arcadian material.
