| Reverse description | A double stellate or double linear pattern fills two compartments of a double linear square frame, creating a symmetric geometric design characteristic of Dyrrachian drachms. The pattern consists of vertical lines with dot groupings in each register, evoking a stylized architectural or decorative motif. The city ethnic ΔYΡ appears in the upper left field outside the square, while the magistrate's name ΦIΛΩTA is distributed around the remaining field. The overall composition is bold and well-centered within the flan. |
