| Reverse description | Mantho, the mythological prophetess and daughter of Tiresias, seated facing on a high-backed throne, her body turned slightly to the left. She holds an open pyxis or box in her lap, an attribute associated with her prophetic function. The figure is rendered in a schematic but recognizable style consistent with Hellenistic provincial bronzes. The ethnic legend ΠΕΛΙΝΝΑΙΕΩΝ arcs around the field, identifying the issuing community of the Pelinnaeians. |
