Triobol

正面描述	Tripod with legs terminating in lion's paws, the bowl adorned with three suspension rings, rendered in the incuse style characteristic of early Achaean colonial coinage. An olive branch or leaf appears to the right of the tripod. A border of dots frames the design, which occupies a slightly irregular flan typical of hammered silver coinage of this period.

附加信息	Kroton's prominence in Magna Graecia rested heavily on its athletic tradition — the city produced more Olympic victors than virtually any other Greek colony, and its coins circulated across a network of trade relationships built as much on prestige as commerce. By the time this triobol was struck, Kroton had already survived the catastrophic defeat at the Sagras river against Lokroi, an engagement ancient sources claim cost the city 130,000 men, a figure almost certainly exaggerated but indicative of the scale of the disaster. The fourth century found the city politically diminished but still a functioning mint.
