背面描述	A wolf in full stride, depicted running to the left with all four legs extended in a dynamic galloping pose, rendered in bold relief characteristic of Argive coinage. The animal's musculature and tail are carefully delineated, conveying speed and vigor. The wolf, sacred to Apollo and an emblematic symbol of Argos, occupies the central field of the flan. The reverse is otherwise plain, with no legend or exergual inscription, consistent with Argive hemidrachm coinage of this period.

附加信息	Argos sat in an awkward political position during this period — nominally aligned with Thebes after the Spartan defeat at Leuctra in 371 BC, yet perpetually maneuvering to preserve local autonomy against every dominant power in turn. The city's silver coinage of this era was struck from metal whose ultimate source remains debated; the Argolid had no significant local silver deposits, making bullion procurement a matter of ongoing commercial and political negotiation. The triobol denomination — three obols, half a drachm — was the workhorse of everyday Peloponnesian commerce, small enough for market transactions yet substantial enough to represent a half-day's wage for a laborer.
