| Reverse description | A single grain of barley or wheat, depicted upright in the central field, enclosed within a laurel or olive wreath composed of detailed leafy branches tied at the base. The civic abbreviation ΕΛ (for Elaia) appears to the upper left and right of the grain, with the ethnic legend ΔΗΜΗ (abbreviated civic demonym) inscribed below, all within the wreath. The design reflects the agricultural importance of grain cultivation to the city of Elaia and follows standard Aeolian civic bronze iconographic conventions. |
