| Reverse description | Man-faced bull striding to right, a type emblematic of Campanian coinage and symbolizing local river deities; above the bull, a lyre or star appears in the field, and occasionally a single letter is placed below the bull's body. The exergue bears the civic legend CALENO, identifying the issuing city of Cales, with the whole composition displaying the bold, compact style typical of South Italian bronze issues of the third century BC. |
