| Reverse description | A laurel wreath occupies the central field of the reverse, tied at the base with a bow. Within the wreath, the Greek letter delta (Δ) is prominently displayed, likely indicating a civic denomination or sequence numeral. The ethnic legend of the Argives is distributed around the wreath in the field. The overall design is characteristic of the civic bronze coinage of Argos in the Antonine and Severan tradition. |
