Beschrijving keerzijde Head of Athena facing right, rendered in profile within a shallow incuse square, wearing a close-fitting Attic helmet. The portrait is executed in archaic style with a pronounced almond-shaped eye and carefully delineated facial features. Partial letters of the ethnic legend are visible in the corners of the incuse square, consistent with an abbreviated form of the Tegean civic inscription. The entire design is set within a recessed square punch typical of early Arcadian obol coinage.

Aanvullende informatie

The Arcadian League coinage of the early fifth century BC represents one of the earliest known experiments in federal Greek coinage — city-states pooling monetary identity under a collective issuer rather than striking autonomously. Tegea's participation is notable given its complicated relationship with Spartan hegemony; the city had only recently been operating under Lacedaemonian pressure and periodically supplied troops to Sparta under treaty obligation.

SNG Copenhagen 188 is among the thinner, lighter fractions of the series, consistent with the smaller obol denominations struck for local market transactions rather than inter-regional trade.
