| Reverse description | Youthful Dionysus standing to the left, his body rendered in a fluid contrapposto stance. In his right hand he extends a cantharus downward over the bearded head of Silenus or a Bacchic mask, while his left hand holds a long thyrsus. The composition reflects the Dionysiac religious significance of Andros, an island with strong mythological ties to the god. The ethnic legend ΑΝΔΡΙωΝ appears in the field, identifying the issuing city. |
