Stater

Anaktorion was a small Akarnanian city at the mouth of the Ambracian Gulf, a site contested enough that Corinth effectively controlled it for much of the classical period before the Akarnanians expelled the Corinthian settlers in 425 BC with Athenian assistance. The staters produced in this narrow window of the late fourth to early third century belong to a period of genuine civic autonomy for Anaktorion within the Akarnanian League.

The BCD collection reference points to the Baron von Aulock–descended material catalogued by the Lanz sales — the BCD Akarnania lot being among the most rigorously attributed groupings of regional coinage assembled in the twentieth century.
