A silver coin recently found by detectorists in the environs
of Trilj can be attributed to Issa, a Greek city on the island of
Vis, on cogent epigraphic, iconographic, and stylistic grounds.
It is the first example of an Issaean silver coin on record and
may be dated between 200 and 175 BC. The coin’s weight
(4.84 g) suggests that it could have circulated as a reduced
Corcyraean didrachm.Srebrni novac koji su detektoristi nedavno pronašli u okolici
Trilja može se pripisati Isi, grčkome gradu na otoku Visu, i to
na uvjerljivim epigrafskim, ikonografskim i stilskim osnovama.
To je prvi zabilježeni primjerak isejskoga srebrnog novca, a
može se datirati u razdoblje između 200. i 175. g. pr. Kr. Težina
novca (4,84 g) sugerira da je možda bio u optjecaju kao reducirana
korkirska didrahma
