Commentary
Poids très léger. Mêmes coins que l’exemplaire reproduit dans l’ouvrage de Hoover (HGCS./ 154). Ce type semble plus rare que ne le laissent supposer les ouvrages généraux. C’est la première fois que nous le proposons à la vente.
Very light weight. Same corners as the copy reproduced in Hoover's work (HGCS./ 154). This type seems rarer than general works suggest. This is the first time we are offering it for sale.

Historical background
THESSALY - PHERRABIA
(5th - 3rd century BC)
The Perrhabians were a tribe of Aeolian origin, established in Epirus and Macedonia. They were allies of the Persians during the Persian Wars. They were tributaries of Thessaly, Larissa and Pherai. Their territory was incorporated into Macedonia during the Third Sacred War (356-346 BC). Their freedom was proclaimed by Flaminius after the Macedonian war against Philip V. After the defeat of Pydna, Perrheboi was integrated into the Thessalian league before becoming part of the Roman province of Macedonia.
