| Reverse description | An eagle standing right, wings partially spread, perched upon a thunderbolt rendered in low relief; the bird's plumage is delineated with fine engraved lines across the wing feathers and breast. To the right of the eagle, the Oscan legend KAPU is inscribed downward in Old Italic characters, identifying the issuing city of Capua. The type closely follows the Campanian monetary tradition inspired by Neapolitan and Syracusan prototypes. The whole is contained within a beaded border. |
