| Beschrijving voorzijde | Man-headed bull advancing to the right, his human head turned back to face the viewer, rendered in the archaic Greek style with bold relief modeling. The creature's musculature is emphatically depicted, conveying strength and vitality characteristic of early South Italian coinage. Above the figure, the retrograde ethnic legend ΛAΣ appears in the field. A dotted border frames the composition at the periphery of the flan. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Laos was a Sybarite foundation on the Tyrrhenian coast of Lucania, and its coinage begins almost precisely when Sybaris itself was destroyed by Croton in 510 BC — the refugees essentially transplanted their city's monetary tradition to the new settlement. The incuse technique used on these small silver fractions is the hallmark of the Achaean colonies of Magna Graecia, a regional convention so consistent across multiple mints that attribution sometimes rests on subtle fabric differences alone.
At 1.17g, the triobol sits at the lower functional limit of silver coinage capable of sustained everyday use. HN Italy 2276 is among the scarcer denominations from this mint.
