| Reverse description | A four-spoked wheel depicted in foreshortened perspective, enclosed within a plain oval or circular border composed of a dotted bead pattern. The spokes radiate from a raised central hub, and the wheel's rim is rendered to convey depth and three-dimensionality, a distinctive artistic convention found on Cyrenaican bronzes of this period. The Greek legend ΝΙΚΩΝΟΣ (genitive of the personal name Nikon, indicating civic magistrate or issuing authority) is inscribed around the periphery of the field. |
