| Beschrijving voorzijde | Facing Boeotian shield rendered in high relief, its characteristic rounded form with two lateral cutouts clearly delineated by incised borders. The shield fills the flan, with the concave cutouts symmetrically positioned on either side, a design emblematic of the Boeotian League coinage. The surface displays the bold, stylized treatment typical of early fourth-century Theban silver issues. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Thebes struck these staters during a period of acute political instability — the city had been dominated by Spartan-backed oligarchs since 382 BC, when a Spartan garrison seized the Kadmeia in a surprise move during peacetime, an act widely condemned even within Sparta itself. The dating places this issue in the years immediately before or concurrent with that occupation, making it part of a coinage tradition that would be violently interrupted for nearly a decade until the democratic exiles returned in 379 BC.
The Timi designation references the specific magistrate responsible for this emission, as Boiotian federal coinage was administered through named officials rather than anonymous civic authority.
