| Reverse description | A trident, the emblematic symbol of Poseidon and the maritime identity of Byzantion, depicted upright and centrally positioned in the field. The three tines of the trident are clearly discernible despite surface wear and patination. The ethnic legend ΒΥΖΑΝΤΙΩΝ is inscribed in the field, identifying the issuing civic authority. The composition is characteristic of autonomous civic bronzes produced at Byzantion during the late Hellenistic period. |
