| Reverse description | A boldly rendered cock standing in right profile, its plumage meticulously engraved with overlapping feathers and scaled breast, the tail elegantly curved behind. In the upper left field, a caduceus is depicted tilted diagonally, its winged staff and intertwined serpents clearly articulated. To the right of the cock, the Greek legend ΣΩΦΥΤΟΥ runs vertically downward. The entire design is enclosed within a beaded border. |
