Aanvullende informatie

Thebes issued this stater during the period of Boeotian dominance that followed Epaminondas's crushing victory at Leuctra in 371 BC — a battle that ended Spartan land supremacy outright. The magistrate name Asop appearing on the reverse places production within the administrative machinery of a city then effectively leading a pan-Greek coalition. That political window closed violently in 338 BC at Chaeronea, where Philip II of Macedon destroyed the Sacred Band and ended Theban hegemony permanently.

Hepworth's classification of this type places it late in the series, after fabric and die-axis conventions had stabilized.
