| Reverse description | A female figure, identity uncertain, stands facing with head turned to the left. She holds a patera in her extended right hand and a long sceptre in her left hand. The figure is rendered in a simple, schematic provincial style characteristic of Greek civic bronze coinage. The ethnic legend of the Megarians appears in the field, partially preserved. The overall relief is low and worn, with some areas of flatness due to the irregular flan and striking conditions. |
