| Beschrijving keerzijde | A tripod with three curved legs terminating in lion-paw feet occupies the central field, its bowl surmounted by a volute ornament. The Greek ethnic inscription ΦΙΛΙΠΠΩΝ runs vertically along the left side of the field. To the right of the tripod, a horse's head facing right is depicted in profile, rendered with fine detail including a dotted bridle. The overall composition is bold and well-balanced within the irregular hammered flan. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
These staters were struck from the gold mines of Mount Pangaion, which Philip II of Macedon seized from the Thasian colonists of Philippi shortly after founding the city in 356 BC. The mines were producing an estimated 1,000 talents annually by the mid-4th century, and this coinage represents the earliest phase of that exploitation — before Philip consolidated production under his own Macedonian royal issues. The Philippian civic staters were quickly superseded once Philip reorganized the regional mint output to fund his military campaigns.
