This silver coin was minted to emphasize the idea of confederacy of the Achaean League (after 280 BC). Each city of the league had in her coins as a standard the laureate head of Zeus and on the reverse the symbol of that city. We can see the Dove (the symbol of Sikyon) underneath the Achaean League monogram. |
