| Reverse description | Meander labyrinth design filling the entire reverse field, rendered as a bold, square geometric pattern of interlocking right-angled lines evoking the legendary Minoan Labyrinth of Knossos. The design is symmetrical and deeply incuse, with four quadrants of spiralling meander motif. The coin bears no inscription or exergual legend, with the labyrinth symbol alone serving as the city's primary reverse type. |
