Reverse description Owl standing to right in a static, frontal posture with head facing forward, rendered in the Athenian iconographic tradition. The bird's plumage and talons are summarily indicated in low relief. The ethnic inscription ΙΜΒΡΟΥ appears to the left of the owl in Greek characters, identifying the issuing community of Imbros. The composition closely echoes Athenian small bronze types, reflecting the island's close cultural and political ties to Athens during the period of Athenian cleruchies.
