| Reverse description | The Chimera, the mythological fire-breathing creature sacred to Corinthian iconographic tradition, depicted in profile striding to the left across the field. The beast is shown with its lion-headed body in a walking pose, the serpentine tail raised, and the goat's head rising from its back, consistent with canonical representations of this type on Corinthian colonial coinage. The colonial mint abbreviation legend appears in the lower exergual area beneath a ground line. |
