| Beschrijving keerzijde | Female head of Kallisto in right profile, her hair bound with a tainia, rendered in the early Classical style with sensitively modeled features. The portrait is contained within a shallow incuse square that frames the design neatly against the plain field. The style is characteristic of Arkadian coinage of the mid-fifth century BC, displaying delicate engraving of the facial contours and hair. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Arcadian League's coinage of this period is among the earliest federal mint issues in the Greek world — a deliberate political statement by a confederacy of inland poleis that lacked individual coastal trade networks and needed a unified currency to function. Kleitor, a small but strategically positioned city in the northern Arcadian highlands, contributed types to this federal issue during a window when the League was consolidating against Spartan pressure following the Persian Wars.
The Williams reference to Confederate #170 as a variety signals a die-link or punch variation from the main recorded type — worth cross-referencing against the BCD specimen, which passed through auction with detailed die commentary.
