| Aanvullende informatie |
The Athenian triobol — half an obol short of the daily wage paid to jurors under Pericles' reforms of the 450s — circulated as genuine working money at a moment when Athens was flush with tribute silver from the Delian League. The League's treasury had just been relocated from Delos to Athens, funneling allied funds directly into Athenian minting operations. SNG Copenhagen 48 places this piece among the small-denomination owl coinage standardized following the Congress Decree period, when Athens was aggressively pushing its own silver as the dominant currency across the Aegean.
