| Reverse description | Apollo seated left upon a rocky outcrop, his right hand extended and his left resting on the seat; beneath the rocky base, a dog faces the fore-part of a horse emerging from the rock, with the head of a boar interposed between the two animals — a composition unique to the civic coinage of Nicopolis in Epirus and likely referencing local mythological or foundation traditions. The reverse legend in Greek occupies the field and border, identifying the issuing city. The scene is rendered with characteristic provincial vitality within a dotted border. |
