| Reverse description | A four-spoked wheel with a central boss or pellet, the four spokes dividing the field into quadrants, each containing one letter of the civic ethnic: Μ (upper), Ε (right), Τ (lower), Α (left), reading ΜΕΤΑ — the abbreviated ethnic of Mesembria. The wheel is enclosed within a raised circular border, itself surrounded by a radiating serrated or striated outer border, creating a distinctive decorative frame characteristic of Mesembrian coinage. The design is boldly struck and well-centered. |
