| Additional information |
Tenedos occupied a strategically awkward position throughout the fourth century — close enough to the Hellespont to matter commercially, small enough to be perpetually caught between Athenian, Spartan, and later Macedonian ambitions. The island changed hands repeatedly, and its coinage reflects a civic authority determined to assert local identity despite that instability.
The SGCV 2676 type belongs to a series long associated with Tenedos's autonomous issues before Macedonian consolidation effectively ended independent mint activity across the Troad.
