| Reverse description | A hippocamp strides right, its equine forequarters flowing into a dolphin-like tail, upon which Amphitrite is seated facing left in a graceful pose. The goddess extends her right hand to support Eros, who stands before her drawing a bow leftward, the scene evoking a mythological marine idyll. A bee appears in the right field, serving as an additional symbol. The ethnic legend BPETTIΩN is inscribed in the field, with the secondary control letter Γ below. The composition is enclosed within a beaded border and reflects the accomplished die-cutting tradition of the Brettian coinage. |
