| Beschrijving keerzijde | The stern of a war galley (trireme) depicted facing left, showing the curved sternpost (aphlaston) and the bank of oars rendered in relief; the entire design is set within a deep, square-cornered circular incuse punch characteristic of early Archaic Greek coinage technique. The incuse field is plain, with the galley motif occupying the central register. The execution is typical of the bold, impressionistic style found on fifth-century BC coinages of the Black Sea region. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Holmoi was a small mint in ancient Epirus, active for a narrow window in the fifth century BC, and its staters are known in very small numbers — few enough that die studies have been conducted on essentially the complete surviving corpus. The precise civic identity of Holmoi remains debated among specialists; it may have been a dependent community rather than a fully autonomous polis, which would explain both the brevity of the coinage and its idiosyncratic weight standard, which sits closer to the Corinthian than the Aeginetan.
