| Reverse description | A single Greek alpha (Α) with a distinctive curved crossbar, centrally placed within a wreath. The wreath encircles the entire reverse field, with individual leaves rendered in low relief. The design is simple and schematic, characteristic of small provincial bronze issues from Nicopolis ad Istrum or Nicopolis in Epirus denoting a denomination or civic mark. |
