| Additional information |
Issued to serve the massive influx of pilgrims and traders attending the ancient Games, the small fractional silver of Olympia was minted in very limited quantities and exclusively in Olympic years — every four years — making each issue a precisely datable artifact tied to a specific celebration. The 105th Olympiad fell in 360 BC, the same Games at which Philip II of Macedon reportedly won the horse race, an early public triumph for the man who would soon reshape the Greek world entirely.
