| Beschrijving keerzijde | Head of Kallisto facing slightly left, depicted as a youthful female bust rendered in early classical style, her hair bound with a tainia (fillet). The portrait is set within a shallow incuse square, a technique typical of early Peloponnesian coinage. The inscription ΑΡΚΑΔΙΚΟΝ appears in Greek characters within the field, identifying the coin as a federally issued piece of the Arcadian League, with the lettering divided across the design. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Arcadian League's federal coinage emerged from a rare experiment in Greek interstate monetary cooperation, one of the earliest attempts to produce a unified currency across independent poleis. Tegea's participation was politically significant — the city had long been Sparta's closest ally in the Peloponnese, and its alignment with the League represented a meaningful, if cautious, repositioning during a period when Spartan dominance was being actively contested. The hemidrachm denomination suggests these were intended for real commerce rather than prestige issue.
