| Reverse description | A boar charges to the right in full stride, its body rendered with typical provincial die-cutting style. A spear pierces the boar's body, a reference to the hunt iconography common on Ephesian civic coinage. The ethnic legend ΕΦΕϹΙΩΝ appears in the field or around the type, identifying the issuing city. |
