| Reverse description | Eros depicted as a nude winged child riding a dolphin leaping to the right, a common motif in the repertoire of provincial Thracian mints evoking maritime and Dionysiac symbolism. The figure of Eros is shown clinging to the dolphin's back, rendered in low to medium relief on an irregularly shaped flan. The abbreviated colonial legend is distributed in the field around the central device, with letters visible in the upper and lower portions of the reverse. |
