Reverse description Double stellate pattern within a square incuse, composed of radiating lines and pellets arranged in a decorative grid, characteristic of the standard reverse type employed on Dyrrachion drachms throughout the Hellenistic and late Republican periods. The magistrate's name ΑΡΙΣΤΗΝΟΣ (Aristenos) is inscribed to the left of the central device, while the ethnic ΔΥΡ (abbreviation for Dyrrachion) appears below, all within a shallow incuse square. The overall design follows the canonical formulaic reverse type of the Dyrrachion series.
