| Reverse description | Standing female figure facing, head turned to the left, depicted in long chiton which she plucks or gathers with one hand, possibly holding a bridle or similar attribute in the other; a dolphin appears to the left of the figure. The iconography has been variously associated with Nemesis or Aphrodite, though the presence of the dolphin may favour an Aphrodite identification. The reverse legend, partially tooled and largely abraded, runs around the field. |
