| Reverse description | Infant Zeus enthroned facing, head turned to the left, depicted seated upon an ornate throne in the field centre. The divine infant is flanked and surrounded by three Corybantes, the mythological armed attendants of Zeus, each figure shown in dynamic posture bearing a round shield and sword. The composition alludes to the Lydian legend of Zeus's infancy at Maeonia. The multi-line Greek magistrate's legend occupies the reverse field around the central figural group. |
