Commentary
Cette série est peu importante comme le faisait remarquer Oscar Ravel. Ce statère appartient à la troisième série de la cinquième période. Pour ce type O. Ravel avait recensé trente quatre coins de droit et vingt coins de revers avec cinq exemplaires cités.
This series is not very important, as Oscar Ravel pointed out. This stater belongs to the third series of the fifth period. For this type, O. Ravel had recorded thirty-four obverse dies and twenty reverse dies, with five examples cited.

Historical background
CORINTHIA - CORINTH
(350-306 BC)
Corinth was the unwitting victim of Macedonian hegemony over Asia from Alexander the Great because it then lost its strategic role. Ptolemy I occupied it from 308 to 306 BC, which marks the date of the end of the manufacture of "colts". It joined the Achaean league after 268 BC, but the city was razed by Lucius Memmius in 146 BC for opposing Rome.
