๐๏ธ A Coin from the Last Breath of Classical Greece
This AE bronze coin was issued by the Thessalian League, a federal political and military alliance of Greek city-states in the region of Thessaly during the 2nd to 1st centuries BC, just before full Roman integration. It features the helmeted head of Athena, goddess of wisdom and warfare, on the obverse and a galloping horse, symbol of Thessalian cavalry prestige, on the reverse.
Certified Authentic and graded Fine (F) by NGC Ancients, this piece offers a tangible link to the fading independence of Greek cities under growing Roman influence.
