Reverse description An owl, symbol of Athena, stands facing right atop the prow of a ship (aphlaston or ram), rendered in compact style characteristic of small fractional silver coinage. The city ethnic ΛΕ appears in the upper left field, abbreviated from ΛΕΒΕΔΙΩΝ, while the magistrate's name ΔOPKΩN is inscribed along the lower portion of the field. The ship's prow is depicted in profile with decorative volute scroll detailing. The design occupies most of the flan, which shows minor striking irregularities consistent with hammered production.
