| Reverse description | An eagle stands in left profile with wings folded tightly against the body, rendered in the characteristic Elean style associated with the sanctuary of Zeus at Olympia. To the right of the bird, a vine branch bears a single leaf and a hanging bunch of grapes, serving as a symbol of the sacred precinct. The flan is irregular and slightly rough at the edges, consistent with hand-struck coinage of the classical period. The composition is spare and well-centered within the available field. |
