| Reverse description | The helmeted portrait of Leonidas I, King of Sparta, is depicted in high relief at left, shown in three-quarter facing view turned slightly to the left, wearing a fully crested Corinthian battle helmet. To the right, three Spartan warriors are shown in dynamic combat poses, each armed with spears and bearing large round hoplon shields, rendered with exceptional sculptural depth. The figures convey intense martial energy, evoking the legendary last stand at the Battle of Thermopylae. The background is textured with a rocky, battle-worn surface consistent with the antique finish treatment of the coin. The legend LEONIDAS appears in the field, identifying the central heroic figure. |
