| Reverse description | A sheaf of four ears of grain (wheat) bound together, standing upright in the field, symbolising the agricultural prosperity of the region. The reverse legend ΕΠΙ ϹΤΡΑ ΑΙϹΧΡΙΩΝΟϹ records the name of the local magistrate (strategos) Aischriōn under whose authority the coinage was issued. The design is contained within a shallow circular border, with the legend disposed around the central device. The motif reflects the importance of cereal cultivation to the civic economy of Erythrae in Ionia. |
