| Reverse description | Nude Zeus standing facing, with head turned to the right, holding a long sceptre in his right hand and resting his left arm on his hip. To the left of Zeus, an eagle stands facing right with wings spread, a divine attribute associated with the god. The composition reflects the local Argive religious tradition venerating Zeus, and the legend ΑΡΓΕΙωΝ is inscribed in the field identifying the issuing city of Argos. |
