| Reverse description | A man-headed bull strides vigorously to the right, its muscular body rendered in high relief above a ground line. The humanoid head, bearded and facing right, bears the characteristic features of a river-god deity, likely the Acheloios or a local Campanian river divinity. Above the figure, the retrograde Greek ethnic legend YDINA (reading right to left) arcs across the upper field, identifying the issuing city of Hyria. |
