Beschrijving keerzijde Within a recessed incuse square, a large fish swims transversely to the right in the upper register, its body rendered with schematic scale detail. Below and to the right, a smaller fish is depicted also swimming to the right, creating a hierarchical composition alluding to the aquatic resources of the Erymanthos river valley near Psophis. The incuse square border is well-defined, consistent with hammered coinage technique of the mid-fifth century BC. The field within the square is plain.

Aanvullende informatie

Psophis was a remote Arcadian city in the northwestern Peloponnese, hemmed in by the Erymanthos river on two sides — isolated enough that its coinage circulated in a tightly constrained regional economy and survives today in very small numbers. The city's issues are among the least-documented in Arcadian numismatics, and BMC Greek #2 remains one of the primary reference points simply because so few systematic studies have followed.
