| Beschrijving voorzijde | Forepart of a horse galloping to the right, rendered in archaic relief with bold, summary modeling characteristic of small Macedonian fractional silver coinage. The horse's neck is arched and the forelegs are extended in full stride. No legend or border ornament is present; the design occupies the entire irregular flan. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Potidaia's coinage was struck during a period of uneasy Athenian dominance — the city was a tribute-paying member of the Delian League while maintaining its Corinthian colonial ties, a contradiction that eventually ignited the Peloponnesian War. The mint ceased operation when Athens besieged and depopulated the city in 432 BC, making this among the final issues before a three-year siege reduced the population to cannibalism according to Thucydides.
