| Reverse description | A ram advancing to the right occupies the central field, rendered in the compact, summary style characteristic of Colophonian civic bronzes. The animal is depicted with its head slightly lowered and legs in mid-stride. The ethnic legend ΚΟΛΟΦΩΝΙΩΝ is distributed around the type, partially above and partially below, within a dotted border. The ram likely serves as a reference to the zodiacal or civic symbolism of Colophon. |
