| Reverse description | Owl standing facing with wings fully spread, displayed in the heraldic manner emblematic of Velian bronze coinage of this period. The bird's talons and feather details are rendered in low relief across the broad flan. The ethnic legend YEΛH appears in Greek characters below the owl, with the letters A and P placed one beneath each wing as a control mark or magistrate's initial. A dotted border or beaded rim is partially visible at the upper edge of the flan. |
