Reverse description An eagle standing left with wings spread, rendered in a bold Hellenistic style influenced by Ptolemaic and Macedonian coinage conventions. The eagle is depicted with folded or partially open wings and stands prominently in the central field. A vertical sceptre or thunderbolt appears alongside the eagle. The two-line Greek royal legend BAΣIΛEΩΣ / KAΥAΡOΥ (meaning 'of King Kavaros') is disposed in the field to the left and right of the central device, affirming the royal authority of the last known king of the Tylis Celts in Thrace.
