| Beschrijving voorzijde | Forepart of a wolf advancing to the right, rendered in relief with considerable naturalistic detail. The animal's head is lowered, ears erect, and the musculature of the shoulder and foreleg is well articulated. The type is characteristic of Argive coinage, referencing the wolf sacred to Apollo Lykeios, the principal deity of the region. The field is plain, with no inscription or additional device. The flan is slightly irregular, as typical of late Hellenistic hammered coinage from the Peloponnese. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Argos maintained an unusually persistent civic coinage through the late Hellenistic period, even as neighboring Peloponnesian cities were absorbing Roman monetary pressure and reducing independent issues. The magistrate name Xenophilos appears on a narrow cluster of these fractional silver pieces, placing this triobol within a specific administrative moment in the city's otherwise sparsely documented late-Republican-era mint activity.
