| Obverse lettering | ΠΟ ΛΙΚ ΓΑΛΛΙΗΝΟϹ ϹΕΒ |
| Reverse description | A large single Greek letter (Α or Δ) displayed prominently within a laurel wreath, the wreath tied at the base with a ribbon. This type of letter-in-wreath reverse is characteristic of the civic bronze coinage of Nicopolis ad Arium in Epirus, where letters served as denomination or series markers. The surrounding legend names the issuing city. The flan is irregular with surface porosity consistent with ancient bronze patination. |
