| Reverse description | Two goats rampant, facing one another and rearing on their hind legs in a heraldic fighting pose, their forelegs raised as if locked in combat. The composition is symmetrically arranged within the coin field, a design motif closely associated with Amphipolis and its civic identity. The ethnic inscription AMΦIΠO-ΛI-TΩN appears divided around the device, identifying the issuing city. The exergue line separates the design from the lower field, and the overall style reflects the vigorous engraving tradition of late Macedonian civic bronzes. |
