| Reverse description | Garlanded crater (wine-mixing vessel) depicted in three-quarter or frontal view, adorned with a festoon garland; the ethnic inscription ΝΑΞΙ appears above the crater, identifying the issuing city of Naxos; the magistrate's name ΝΙΚΟΣ is inscribed to the left; a filleted thyrsos, the attribute of Dionysos, stands to the right of the crater. The composition reflects the Dionysiac religious imagery characteristic of Naxian civic coinage of the Hellenistic period. |
