Descrizione del rovescio	A bunch of grapes pendant from a short stalk, centrally positioned within the field, rendered in a schematic but recognizable style. The cluster is depicted with individual berries suggested in relief. The royal legend in Greek characters flanks the central device, divided across the field, identifying the issuing monarch. The composition is simple and characteristic of the small bronze fractional coinage of the Artaxiad dynasty.
