| Reverse description | A ram stands in profile to the right, rendered in typical provincial style with compact body and visible horns. The animal, a traditional civic symbol associated with Colophon, occupies the central field of the flan. The ethnic legend ΚΟΛΟΦΩΝΙΩΝ encircles the design, identifying the issuing city of the Colophonians. The overall execution is characteristic of the small-module bronze coinage of the Ionian Conventus of Ephesus under Philip I. |
