Reverse description The seated figure of Pythagoras, the celebrated philosopher and mathematician native to Samos, shown in left-facing profile upon a high-backed chair or throne.

The bilingual-style Greek legends flank the figure, with ϹΑΜΙωΝ (of the Samians) to the left and ΠΥΘΑΓΟΡΗϹ (Pythagoras) to the right, celebrating the island's most famous intellectual son.
