| Beschrijving keerzijde | Within a shallow incuse square, a large alpha (Α) dominates the central field, serving as the principal emblem of Argos. The letters Δ and Ε are disposed across the upper field flanking the alpha. Below, an eagle stands to the right atop a harpa (curved sickle), rendered in fine archaic style. The incuse square border frames the entire composition in a manner typical of early Peloponnesian silver coinage. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Argos maintained an independent mint well into the Hellenistic period despite the city's diminishing political weight following Macedonian hegemony over the Peloponnese. These fractional silver issues served the dense local economy of the Argolid, where Argos functioned as a regional market center even as larger political authority had shifted elsewhere. The triobol denomination — half a drachm — was the workhorse of everyday Greek commercial life, small enough for routine transactions but substantial enough to hold real purchasing value.
The Peloponnesos reference numbers span a recognized die grouping, suggesting relatively concentrated production within a short administrative window.
