| Reverse description | Owl of Athena standing right with head facing, rendered in the canonical Athenian owl type. An olive sprig and crescent are visible in the left field behind the bird, while a grape bunch appears above the tail — a distinctive local addition differentiating this Bactrian imitative issue from its Athenian prototype. The abbreviation AΘE appears in the right field, imitating the standard Athenian legend. The style is provincial and somewhat crude, reflecting local die-cutting traditions. |
