| Beschrijving voorzijde | Cow standing to right, head turned back to left to observe a suckling calf standing beneath her. In the upper field, the radiate head of Helios faces right, while an owl stands facing in the right field. The magistrate's name ΦIΛΩTAΣ appears as the obverse legend. The composition reflects the characteristic iconographic program of Dyrrachian drachms, combining civic and divine imagery in a dynamic pastoral scene. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Dyrrachion — the Greek colony known later to Romans as Dyrrachium — sat on one of the most strategically trafficked stretches of the Adriatic coast, serving as the western terminus of the Via Egnatia. Its drachms circulated far inland through Illyria and Macedonia, and the practice of naming both a magistrate and a secondary official on each issue creates the dense prosopographical record that makes this series unusually traceable. Philotas and Zopyros represent one of dozens of such pairings documented across the late second and early first century.
