Stater

Anaktorion was a small Akarnanian coastal polis whose coinage is closely tied to the regional Corinthian monetary tradition — these staters follow the Corinthian standard almost precisely, reflecting the city's long commercial and political alignment with Corinth, which had colonized the site in the seventh century. The BCD Akarnania series, assembled by one of the most rigorous private collectors of Greek regional coinage in the twentieth century, remains the primary reference framework for distinguishing Anaktorion issues from the broader and easily confused Korinthian-type output.
