| Reverse description | A double stellate or grape-cluster pattern fills the centre of a concave square formed by double incuse lines bowing inward at each side, creating a characteristic cushion-shaped incuse square. The legend of the city ethnic and the secondary magistrate's name is distributed in four segments around the central pattern, reading KΛEI to the upper left, TOPI to the lower centre, OY to the right, and ΔYP to the upper right. The overall design is deeply impressed and typical of the Dyrrachion drachm reverse type throughout the period of civic coinage. |
