Hemidrachm

正面描述	Bull standing to left in profile, rendered in high relief with naturalistic musculature, positioned above a raised exergual line that divides the field. The animal is depicted with head lowered, tail raised, and legs in a walking stance, conveying strength and movement. The style is characteristic of the Archaic to early Classical tradition of the Peloponnesian region. The field above the bull is plain and lightly granular in texture. No legend is present on the obverse.

附加信息	Phlious was a small polis in the northeastern Peloponnese, perpetually squeezed between Corinth and Argos, and its coinage output reflects that marginal status — issues are sparse, dies few, and variants like this piece appear in no more than a handful of examples across major collections. The city's loyalty shifted repeatedly during the Peloponnesian War years bracketing this issue, ultimately siding with Sparta despite geographic pressure from Argos. The BCD collection remains the primary reference point for Phlious coinage precisely because public auction material is so thin.
