| Reverse description | Tetrastyle temple façade with four columns supporting an entablature, enclosing a prominent doorway with decorated oversized posts and lintel, rendered in the frontal architectural style common to Greek provincial civic coinage. The temple likely represents a local sanctuary at Troezen, possibly that of Poseidon or Hippolytus, for whom the city was renowned. The reverse legend ΤΡοΙΖΗΝΙωΝ appears in the field or around the temple, identifying the issuing city. The architectural rendering is stylized, with emphasis on the doorway as the central decorative element. |
