Reverse description A wild boar strides energetically to the right, its bristled back and powerful haunches rendered in fine relief with careful attention to musculature and texture. The animal is depicted with prominent raised hackles along the spine, a hallmark of Aspendian boar types. Below the boar in the lower field, the civic ethnic inscription appears in archaic Greek characters. The design is enclosed within a beaded border, lending a sense of formal composition to the reverse field.
