The silver coinages of Achaian and Aetolian Federal States : new numismatic and historical datas
Résumé
The federal Achaian coinage of the Hellenistic period was produced in a civic framework, in silver of lesser quality than that of the coins of central Greece and the Aetolian koinon. New elements on the monetary history of the Aetolian koinon will be presented. The results of LA-ICP-MS elemental analyses of Achaian and Aeolian coins in the Bibliothèque nationale de France will be compared with data on Macedonian, Athenian and Boeotian coinages.
