| Reverse description | A peacock, sacred bird of Hera, stands facing left in the field. The image alludes to the celebrated Heraion sanctuary on Samos, one of the most important cult centres of Hera in the Greek world. The abbreviated legend ΗΡΗ appears prominently in the field, identifying the goddess. The design is bold and simple, typical of the small-module civic bronze issues of the Aegean region during the Trajanic period. |
