| Beschrijving keerzijde | Trident displayed upright in the centre of the field, with three tines clearly articulated, serving as the principal civic emblem of Troezen, a city closely associated with Poseidon. The abbreviated ethnic inscription TPO appears to the left of the trident, identifying the issuing city. A small pellet or decorative element is visible in the upper left field. The design is contained within an irregular incuse square typical of hammered coinage of this period. |

Troezen's coinage output was always modest — a small polis with limited mint activity, producing fractions primarily for local exchange rather than regional trade. The tritartemorion, three-quarters of an obol, is among the smallest denominations struck anywhere in the ancient Greek world, and Troezen's version sits at the extreme low end of that range by weight.
The decade of this issue corresponds roughly with the period of Theban hegemony following Leuctra in 371 BC, when Spartan power across the Peloponnese collapsed and smaller communities like Troezen briefly navigated unusual political independence.
