Reverse description Rose with open blossom and two buds on flanking stems, depicted within a raised rectangular incuse frame (plinthophoron) characteristic of the late Rhodian coinage series. The magistrate's name ΤΙΜΟΣΤΡΑΤΟΣ is inscribed above the rose along the upper border of the square, while the ethnic abbreviation Ρ - Ο flanks the central floral device at mid-field. The composition is compact and formally arranged, reflecting the standardised plintophoric type introduced at Rhodes in the second century BC.
