| Reverse description | A kantharos (two-handled wine cup) depicted centrally in the field, with pronounced handles and a stepped foot, rendered in bold relief. Above the kantharos, a grain ear extends to the right, serving as a civic symbol of agricultural prosperity. The ethnic abbreviation ΜΑΥΘ is distributed around the central device in Greek capitals, with letters placed to the left and right of the kantharos. The design is characteristic of the autonomous civic bronze coinage of Methymna on Lesbos. |
