| Additional information |
Terina was a Greek colony on the Tyrrhenian coast of Bruttium, founded by settlers from Croton around 480 BC. The city enjoyed a remarkably brief window of prosperity before Agathocles of Syracuse razed it circa 204 BC, which makes any surviving civic coinage a product of that compressed flourishing. The dies of this period are closely associated with the so-called "Terina Master," whose engraving quality rivals contemporary work from Syracuse — an observation that has driven serious scholarly attention to this series since Regling's foundational study.
HN Italy 2622 places this issue firmly within the mature phase of Terinian coinage.
