| Reverse description | Apollo depicted standing facing, draped in a long chiton, holding a plectrum in his right hand and a kithara (lyre) in his left, a type closely associated with the cult of Apollo Ptoos at Thespiae in Boeotia. The ethnic legend ΘΕΣΠΙΕΩΝ is inscribed in the field, identifying the issuing city. The composition reflects the importance of Apollo as a civic deity of Thespiae. |
