背面描述	A dolphin swimming to the right occupies the upper register of the reverse field, rendered with a naturalistic curving body and a clearly defined tail fin. Below the dolphin, a horizontal ground line divides the field, beneath which the ethnic inscription appears in two lines. The composition is typical of the small bronze coinage issued by communities of Oitaia in Thessaly, reflecting the regional iconographic tradition associating local identity with marine motifs.

附加信息	The Oitaioi were a tribal grouping of the Ainianes confederacy settled in the Spercheios valley of central Greece, a region that remained peripheral to the major currency networks of classical Greece. Their bronze small-change issues are documented but poorly understood in terms of specific minting authority — it is not clear whether production was centralized at a single polis or distributed across the tribal settlement. The BCD Thessaly references reflect Jean Elsen auction material that substantially revised earlier typological understanding of this series.
