| Reverse description | A ram standing right in a naturalistic pose, its body rendered with careful attention to musculature and fleece texture. To the right of the animal, an aphlaston (the ornamental stern-piece of a Greek warship) is depicted, serving as a civic symbol associated with Klazomenai's maritime identity. Above the ram, the Greek ethnic legend ΠΑΡΜΙΣ is inscribed in the field. The composition is well-centred within the round flan, consistent with fourth-century Ionian civic bronze coinage. |
