| Reverse description | Apollo, semi-nude, reclining in a languid pose upon the back of a swan in flight to the left, his right arm extended and holding a kithara (lyre) upright before him. The composition reflects a well-known Hellenistic type associating Apollo with the swan, sacred to the god. The ethnic legend of the mint is inscribed in two lines in the lower field, within a beaded border. |
