| Reverse description | Forepart of a lion advancing to the right, rendered with vigorous detail including a flowing mane and open mouth; the Greek ethnic inscription ΙΑΣ appears above in the field, identifying the issuing city of Iasos. Beneath the lion's chest, a prawn (crayfish) is depicted, serving as the characteristic civic badge of Iasos and a reference to the city's maritime economy. The design fills the irregularly shaped flan, with no border or exergue line. |
