The surface displays the characteristic irregular flan typical of hammered Elean silver coinage of the period.

附加信息

Olympia functioned less as a city-state than as a sanctuary administration, and its coin issues were tied directly to the financial demands of managing the Panhellenic games and the upkeep of the Altis precinct. Issues in this size were likely produced in anticipation of festival cycles, when tens of thousands of visitors would require small-denomination silver for offerings, fees, and trade at the sanctuary market.

The BCD Peloponnesos specimen — from one of the most rigorously documented sales of Peloponnesian coinage ever assembled — confirms the type's rarity at this fractional denomination.
