| Reverse description | A dolphin leaping to the right is depicted in the upper field, rendered with vigorous naturalistic detail typical of Olbian coinage, reflecting the city's strong maritime identity and its close association with the Black Sea. Below the dolphin, the ethnic inscription OΛBIO is arranged in a semicircular legend across the lower portion of the field. The design is compact and boldly struck within the small irregular flan, with the dolphin's arched body dominating the composition. |
