The dating of this issue places it squarely within the Corinthian War, during which Boeotia — having recently broken from Sparta following the raid on Thebes at Aulis in 395 BC — fought as an active member of the anti-Spartan coalition alongside Athens, Corinth, and Argos. The League's mint was producing coinage under genuine military and political pressure, not ceremonial circumstance.
The series ended when the King's Peace of 387 BC, brokered by Artaxerxes II, effectively dissolved the Boeotian League as a political entity — Sparta had insisted on its disbandment as a condition of the settlement.
