Reverse description Athena Ilias depicted advancing to the left in a striding military posture, clad in a long peplos with visible folds, her right hand raised holding a spear and her left hand extended bearing a distaff, emblematic of her dual role as goddess of war and craft at Ilion. A gorgoneion is prominently placed before her figure in the left field. The ethnic inscription IΛI appears vertically in the right field in Greek characters, identifying the issuing city. The figure stands on a ground line, and the composition closely follows the canonical type of the cult statue of Athena Ilias venerated at the sanctuary of Ilion.
