| Beschrijving keerzijde | Within a shallow incuse square, a nude male figure — identified as the hero Herakles or a warrior — strides to the right, carrying a club or spear in his raised right hand and a bow in his lowered left hand. To the upper left of the figure, a small circular wheel or astragal symbol is visible within the field. The ethnic inscription ΘEB appears in the lower left field, identifying the issuing city of Thebes. The incuse technique and bold figural style are characteristic of Boeotian silver coinage of the Classical period. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Thebes dominated the Boeotian League intermittently throughout the fifth century, and the coinage of the confederation was effectively controlled by whichever city held hegemony. These staters circulated across a league whose member cities had deeply unequal standing — Thebes commanded the federal mint while smaller poleis like Thespiae and Plataea held far less sway over monetary policy. The decade framing this issue preceded the catastrophic Theban defeat at Delium in 424 BC and the prolonged Spartan occupation that would follow.
The BCD Boiotia reference remains the authoritative die study for this series. BCD 413–414 represents a closely related pair within a sequence showing progressive die deterioration.
