Reverse description An eagle stands facing left with head turned to the right, wings fully spread, holding a wreath in its beak. The bird is rendered in the robust provincial style characteristic of Pontic civic bronzes of the mid-third century. The Greek civic legend ΗΡΑΚΛΕΩΤΑΝ ΠΟΝΤΩ is distributed around the eagle in the field. The coin exhibits an irregular flan with moderate wear and surface corrosion consistent with its bronze composition and age.
