| Reverse description | The Dioskouri (Castor and Pollux), the divine twin horsemen and patron deities of Tyndaris, depicted on horseback galloping to the left. The two mounted figures are shown in dynamic motion, rendered with characteristic Sicilian vigour. The Greek legend ΣΩTHPEΣ ('Saviours'), an honorific epithet of the Dioskouri, appears in the field around the design. |
