| Aversbeschreibung | A tall amphora with a rounded body occupies the central field, its mouth flanked by a hanging grape bunch to the left and an ivy leaf to the right, rendered in bold relief. The ethnic inscription OΠON is disposed around the vessel in Greek characters, with letters positioned in the left and right fields. The amphora rests on a pointed foot, and the overall composition is framed by an incuse circular border. The engraving reflects the competent die-cutting style characteristic of Lokrian civic coinage of the early fourth century BC. |

The Opuntian Lokrians occupied a stretch of the Greek mainland facing Euboia, and their silver coinage — modest in denomination but consistent in output — reflects a community deeply integrated into the commercial networks of central Greece. This period coincides with the aftermath of the Boeotian hegemony under Thebes, when Lokris sat uneasily between competing regional powers following Leuktra in 371 BC. The obol, as the smallest practical silver unit, circulated at the level of daily transactions rather than interstate exchange.
The concentration of this type across major reference collections — Copenhagen, Fitzwilliam, Tübingen, Weber — points to a reasonably sustained mint output, not a rare emergency issue.
