| Reverse description | Kantharos (wine cup) depicted facing, with two prominent loop handles flanking the cup body and a short stem with base below; the vessel is centrally placed within the field. The ethnic inscription NA Ξ-Ι appears flanking the kantharos, identifying the issuing city of Naxos. The design is characteristic of Naxian civic bronze coinage of the 4th century BC, with the kantharos serving as a prominent civic symbol referencing the island's association with Dionysos. |
