| Reverse description | Eagle standing to the right in three-quarter view, wings partially spread and folded, rendered with strong bold relief typical of Lacedaemonian civic bronzes. The abbreviation ΛΑ appears above in the upper field, denoting the Lacedaemonians, while the magistrate's initials ΦΙ and ΔΙ flank the eagle to the left and right respectively. A dotted border partially encircles the design, and the flan surface shows typical green and brown patination consistent with an ancient bronze struck by hammer. |
