| Reverse description | A Delphic tripod cauldron depicted in the central field, shown in frontal view with three legs clearly rendered and a flat basin surmounted by a conical or triangular finial, referencing the oracular sanctuary of Apollo at Delphi and emblematic of the sacred status of Nicopolis. The Greek legend ΙΕΡΑϹ ΝΕΙΚΟΠΟΛΙϹ, meaning 'of sacred Nicopolis', runs around the periphery, with the numeral Δ (4) appearing in the field as a denomination or series mark. The design is boldly struck relative to the flan, with the tripod occupying the majority of the reverse field in a schematic but recognisable provincial style. |
