Reverse description Leto advancing left with head turned right, her drapery billowing dramatically behind her in the wind, cradling an infant in each arm — representing the divine twins Apollo and Artemis. The composition reflects the mythological episode of Leto fleeing persecution while protecting her newborn children. The reverse legend in Greek identifies the issuing civic authority of Tripolis in Lydia. A beaded border frames the design.
