| Beschrijving keerzijde | Forepart of a bull advancing to the right, rendered in profile with fine engraving typical of Samian silver coinage of the classical period. The magistrates' names ZHNOΔOTOΣ and MANΔPAΓOP are inscribed above the bull in Greek letters, identifying the issuing officials. An olive branch appears to the left of the bull, serving as a civic symbol. The ethnic abbreviation ΣA is placed below, denoting the issuing city of Samos. The composition is well-organized within the incuse square field characteristic of eastern Greek hammered coinage. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Samos maintained its own silver coinage through much of the fifth and fourth centuries, but the magistrate-signed issues — naming individual officials responsible for the emission — represent a relatively brief administrative practice. Zenodotos and Mandragoros appear together on a small cluster of dies, suggesting a single jointly-supervised issue rather than sequential tenures. The SNG Kayhan 665 reference places this squarely within the post-413 period when Samos had rebuilt enough civic autonomy, following the Athenian disaster in Sicily and the subsequent Ionian revolt, to reassert independent monetary production.
