| Reverse description | A dolphin swimming left is depicted above a tuna fish also oriented to the left, both rendered in the bold, stylized manner typical of Ibero-Punic civic bronzes. The marine motifs are emblematic of Abdera's identity as a coastal fishing colony, reflecting the town's renowned tuna and fish-salting industry. Below or beside the figures, a Neo-Punic legend in four characters reads 𐤏𐤁𐤃𐤓𐤕, representing the Punic name of the city. A partial dotted border frames portions of the design. |
