| Reverse description | Two Dioscuri, Castor and Pollux, depicted as standing nude figures advancing to the right, each carrying a round shield and a long spear. The twin deities are rendered in a striding military pose, a type well attested in the provincial coinage of Ionian cities. The ethnic legend ΦΩΚΑΕΩΝ appears in the field, identifying the issuing city of Phocaea. The composition is compact within the circular flan, with the figures occupying the central field. |
