Obverse description Central device depicts a stylised lion passant guardant, shown frontally within a wreath of laurel branches, holding a shield bearing a small cross in its forepaws and clutching a bundle of arrows. The lion is rendered in a naïve, archaic style characteristic of early 19th-century Greek coinage. The circular legend ΕΠΤΑΝΗΣΟΣ ΠΟΛΙΤΕΙΑ (Septinsular State) runs around the periphery in Greek characters, with a small star at the base separating the beginning and end of the inscription. The coin's rim shows a fine reeded border.
