Reverse description Standing figure of Athena Ilias advancing to the right, depicted in the archaic xoanon style with arms outstretched, holding a spear in the right hand and a distaff or sceptre in the left. The cult image reflects the sacred statue of the goddess venerated at the sanctuary of Ilium. To the right of the figure, a monogram reading ΑΦΥ appears in the field, likely denoting a civic magistrate or mint official. The ethnic legend ΙΛΙ is inscribed to the right.
