| Reverse description | The Cretan myth of the nursing of the infant Zeus is depicted: a she-goat stands to the right, head turned back to the left, suckling the infant Zeus who crouches beneath her. The scene alludes to the mythological episode on Mount Ida in Crete, a type attested in the coinage of Tralles. The magistrate's legend encircles the type in the field, naming the local grammateus responsible for the issue. |
