Commentary

Ce type est copié sur le tétradrachme de Philippe II de Macédoine (359-336 AC.). Au départ, le monnayage est en argent, puis le métal s’appauvrit et les derniers tétradrachmes sont en mauvais billon ou en bronze. Ce type de monnayage se rencontre dans le trésor de Regöly (Tolna).
This type is copied from the tetradrachm of Philip II of Macedon (359-336 BC). Initially, the coinage was in silver, then the metal became poorer and the last tetradrachms were in poor billon or bronze. This type of coinage is found in the Regöly (Tolna) treasure.
