| Beschrijving keerzijde | Facing bucranium (bull's head) turned slightly to the right, depicted in a bold, stylized manner with clearly modeled horns, muzzle, and dewlap, a type emblematic of the Cretan city of Lappa. The head fills the compact flan, rendered in relief against a plain, unadorned field. No legend or ethnic inscription accompanies the type. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Lappa was one of the more isolated inland cities of western Crete, and its bronze coinage was produced entirely for local exchange — it never achieved the wider circulation of coastal minting centers like Kydonia or Gortyn. The city survived the Roman conquest of Crete in 67 BC largely intact, which is more than can be said for Kydonia, razed by Metellus's campaign.
