| Beschrijving voorzijde | Draped bust of a young female deity facing right, identified as Persephone or a local nymph, wearing a wreath of grain or laurel in her elaborately styled wavy hair. Pearl necklace adorns the neck, and a pendant earring is visible. The facial features are rendered in fine Classical Greek style with high relief, exhibiting the characteristic idealized beauty of Lokrian coinage from the mid-fourth century BC. The field is smooth and unlettered. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Opuntian Lokrians occupied a strategically awkward stretch of the Greek mainland opposite Euboia, and their coinage reflects a polis that punched above its weight diplomatically while remaining militarily dependent on alliances. This triobol — half a drachm — was the workhorse denomination for regional trade and mercenary payments across central Greece during a period when Theban hegemony was reshaping the entire political order of the mainland.
SNG Copenhagen 49 is the standard reference anchor for this type, with the Copenhagen collection's example acquired during the 19th-century Scandinavian antiquarian collecting surge that assembled many of the definitive Greek provincial holdings.
