| Additional information |
Terina was a small Greek colonial city on the Tyrrhenian coast of Bruttium, founded by settlers from Croton around 480 BC. Its staters are among the most admired coinages of Magna Graecia, and the dies of this early series have been attributed with reasonable confidence to the same engravers active at Syracuse during the transitional period between the Demareteion coinage and the classical masterworks of Kimon and Euainetos. The city was ultimately destroyed by Hannibal around 204 BC, and never reoccupied — leaving its coinage without successors.
