| Reverse description | An owl depicted standing facing, with spread wings partially visible, set between two olive sprays flanking the central motif — a composition closely derived from the Athenian tetradrachm type. The Aramaic inscription 'ayin-zayin (עז), denoting Gaza, appears across the lower field. The incuse square punch characteristic of hammered coinage of this series frames the design on the reverse. |
