| Beschrijving voorzijde | A petasos (the broad-brimmed travelling hat associated with Jason and Thessalian horsemen) rendered in profile view, depicted with its characteristic low dome and wide brim, set within a beaded border. The design is rendered in archaic style with bold, slightly raised relief typical of early Thessalian coinage. The surrounding field is granular and uneven, consistent with the primitive fabric of this early emission. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Larissa's hemiobol from this period falls within the early coinage of Thessaly, a region that was slow to adopt silver coinage relative to its southern neighbors — local economies here ran heavily on livestock and agricultural exchange well into the fifth century. The tiny module places it among the smallest fractional denominations in circulation, likely used for small transactions at the markets for which Larissa was already regionally prominent.
The BCD references trace to the collection of a single dedicated Thessalian specialist whose assembled series remains the benchmark for attribution of these early fractions.
