背面描述	Helmeted head of Athena facing left, wearing a Corinthian helmet pushed back on the head, with visible crest and cheek guards. The goddess's hair is rendered in wavy locks falling at the neck, with a serpent emerging from beneath the helmet on the lower right. To the right of the neck, a small circular shield device or symbol is visible in the field. The portraiture is rendered in fine archaic-transitional Greek style, with strong relief and careful attention to detail. The Greek letter Κ (kappa) appears in the right field, serving as an abbreviated ethnic for the issuing city.

附加信息	Koronta was a small Akarnanian settlement whose coinage exists in frustratingly small numbers, likely reflecting limited civic wealth rather than short-lived minting activity. The Akarnanians operated as a loose federal league from roughly the mid-fourth century, and whether Koronta struck on its own authority or under some degree of federal oversight remains debated among specialists. The BCD collection reference here is significant — Lanz's 2002 auction of the BCD Akarnania material remains the single most important dispersal of this regional coinage in modern times, and auction appearances of Korontan staters outside that event are rare.
