To the lower field, the letters Ρ Ο appear as the civic ethnic abbreviation for Rhodes. To the left, an aphlaston (the ornamental stern of a warship) serves as a subsidiary symbol. The magistrate's name ΑΡΙΣΤΟΚΡΙΤΟΣ is inscribed in Greek letters around the upper periphery within a beaded border, identifying the issuing authority.
