Stater

Terina was a small Greek colony on the Tyrrhenian coast of Bruttium, founded by Croton in the late sixth century, and its coinage — produced over a relatively compressed window — is among the most artistically distinguished of Magna Graecia. The staters attributed to this narrow period fall within what scholars classify as the city's finest die-cutting phase, with multiple major collections holding examples: the Fitzwilliam, Hunterian, and the Jameson collection all catalogued specimens, a density of institutional attention unusual for a mint of Terina's modest political weight.

The city was destroyed by Hannibal around 204 BC, its population reportedly relocated, ending any civic continuity. That finality means no later municipal coinage muddies the series.
