| Reverse description | Poseidon, depicted nude and in full figure, stands in a dignified contrapposto pose facing left, his right foot raised and resting upon a rock. He holds a trident in his lowered left hand while his right hand rests upon his right thigh. In the outer left field, a monogram composed of the letters ΑΓΚ serves as a control mark identifying the mint official or issue; in the outer right field, a bunch of grapes functions as a secondary control symbol. The Greek legend ΒΑΣΙΛΕΩΣ ΔΗΜΗΤΡΙΟΥ, reading 'of King Demetrios,' frames the type. |
