| Reverse description | A butting bull advancing to the right, rendered in a sturdy, compact style typical of Roman provincial coinage from Epirus. The animal is depicted with lowered head in a charging pose, symbolising the strength and colonial identity of Buthrotum. The legend EX CONSENSV D appears in the upper field, referencing the authorisation by the local decurions (senatorial council), while the colonial abbreviation C C I B (Colonia Caesarea Iuuia Buthrotum) is inscribed in the lower field or exergue. A post-antique piercing hole is visible at the left edge of the flan. |
