| Reverse description | A tall, narrow amphora with pointed base and two handles shown facing, set within a circular olive wreath composed of individual leaves radiating symmetrically around the central device. The abbreviated ethnic inscription ΣΑ flanks the amphora, serving as a civic identifier for the polis of Samos. The wreath border and amphora together form a compact, well-balanced reverse type consistent with Samian bronze coinage of the early fourth century BC. |
