| Reverse description | An eagle displayed in right-facing flight, its broad wings fully spread and powerfully rendered, clutching a hare in its talons — a composition emblematic of Chalkidian civic pride and a recurring type on the city's coinage. The predatory scene is executed with vigorous naturalism typical of fourth-century BC Greek die-cutting. The ethnic abbreviation XAΛ appears in the field to the right of the eagle, identifying the issuing city of Chalkis. A small star is visible in the upper field, serving as a secondary symbol. |
