Triobol

正面描述	Forepart of a wolf in bay position, facing left, rendered in bold relief against a plain field. The animal's head is depicted with an open jaw and pricked ear, conveying an aggressive, alert posture characteristic of Argive coinage. The modelling is robust and compact, consistent with the late Classical to early Hellenistic artistic conventions of the Argolic mint. The type alludes to the wolf as a sacred animal of Apollo Lykeios, the patron deity of Argos.

附加信息	Argos maintained one of the more conservative minting traditions in the Peloponnese, resisting the broader Hellenistic shift toward Attic weight standards far longer than neighboring cities. The triobol — half a drachm — served as a practical workhorse denomination in local and regional exchange, particularly as Argos navigated its complicated political position between Macedonian pressure from the north and Spartan hostility to the south. The dating range spans the period when Argos briefly allied with Demetrius Poliorcetes against Sparta, a relationship that brought the city into sharp Hellenistic politics without fully abandoning its civic coinage traditions.
