| Aanvullende informatie |
The Aetolian League reached its political apex in the early third century BC, controlling the sanctuary at Delphi after expelling a Galatian raid in 279 BC — an act of prestige that gave the League de facto authority over the Amphictyonic Council and, with it, influence over much of central Greece. The silver coinage issued across the following decades reflects a confederation operating at genuine pan-Hellenic weight, not merely a regional military alliance.
BCD Akarnania 478 places this piece within the broader BCD collection's treatment of western Greek federal coinage, where Akarnanians and Aetolians intersected both politically and numismatically.
