Reverse description Three nymphs, nude or lightly draped, depicted hand-in-hand and dancing in a circle around a flaming altar or fire set upon a low base. The central figure faces outward while the flanking figures face inward, their bodies animated in a graceful choreographic pose. The abbreviation AΠOΛ, referencing the city of Apollonia, appears in the upper field between the figures, while the magistrate's name APIΣTAPXOΣ is inscribed in a straight exergual legend below the baseline. A monogram within a square frame appears beneath the exergual line. The entire design is enclosed within a beaded border.
