| Reverse description | Eagle standing left with wings spread, its head turned to the right and talons gripping a serpent coiled beneath it. The eagle is depicted in a powerful, heraldic posture with detailed feathering across the wings and body. To the upper right of the field, the Greek civic abbreviation ΑΒΥ is inscribed, identifying the issuing city of Abydos. The composition fills the flan effectively, with the serpent providing a dynamic lower register element typical of Abydene bronze issues of this period. |
