| Aanvullende informatie |
Dyme was one of the twelve cities of the Achaean League, and by 86 BC its independent civic coinage was effectively a dead issue — Lucius Cornelius Sulla had sacked Athens that same year and was methodically dismantling Greek resistance across the peninsula. Coinage struck at Dyme this late in the period likely reflects a brief assertion of civic identity under extreme Roman pressure, or possibly emergency financing tied to the conflict itself.
The BCD collection reference places this among a well-documented but sparsely represented group. Specimens matching the Copenhagen plates turn up rarely outside major auction archives.
