| Beschrijving keerzijde | Quadripartite incuse square of irregular form, divided by raised bars into four recessed compartments of unequal depth, each displaying a roughly granular or plain surface. This characteristic incuse punch type is typical of early fifth-century BC silver coinage from the Thraco-Macedonian region, produced by a single reverse die application. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Argilos was a Thasian colony on the Strymonian Gulf, and by the late sixth century it had grown wealthy enough on timber and silver mining revenues to issue its own coinage. The city's independence was effectively ended when Amphipolis was founded by Athens in 437 BC just kilometers away, absorbing the trade routes and regional dominance that had made Argilos prosperous. These staters belong to the window just after Xerxes' invasion, when the northern Aegean was reconfiguring politically and commercially at speed.
Gillet #857 is among the rarer documented examples of this civic issue.
