| Reverse description | A youthful male divinity, identified as Zeus, seated left upon a square labyrinth — the distinctive civic symbol of Knossos — his lower limbs draped in flowing drapery. In his extended right hand he holds a Nike (winged Victory), while his left hand grasps a long sceptre. A monogram appears in the left field, and the ethnic legend KNΩΣIΩN is inscribed around the type, with AΓEI in the exergue. |
