| Reverse description | A large archaic letter san (the Sikyonian sigma, resembling the letter M), oriented vertically and displayed prominently in raised relief within a shallow incuse square. The incuse recess is well-defined with straight borders, the letter boldly rendered as the civic abbreviation for Sikyon. The design is purely epigraphic, with no subsidiary devices, consistent with early fifth-century Peloponnesian coinage practice. |
