Trihemiobol

Phaloria was a minor Thessalian community whose independent coinage output was modest by any measure. This bronze issue falls within a period when Thessaly's political structure was being reorganized under Macedonian influence following Philip II's consolidation of the region in 344 BC, which effectively ended the old Thessalian League's autonomy and installed Macedonian-aligned rulers across member cities. That Phaloria continued striking its own bronze at all during this window suggests a degree of local administrative continuity that the larger political changes did not fully suppress.
