| Reverse description | Eagle displayed in left profile, standing with wings spread and slightly raised upon a rocky omphalos or sacred stone, the primary emblem of Zeus at Olympia. The bird is rendered with crisp feather detail across the wings, breast, and tail, with talons firmly gripping the mound below. The head is turned to face left with beak open, conveying a sense of power and divine authority befitting the sacred animal of Zeus. The composition fills the flan within an incuse square field, consistent with Elean coinage of this period. No legend is present on the reverse. |
