| Reverse description | A tripod lebes depicted in profile at centre, its three legs resting on a ground line, with decorative fillets hanging from each side of the bowl in the manner associated with sacred Delphic dedications. A laurel branch is shown above the tripod, and a single barley grain appears to the right as a subsidiary symbol. The ethnic legend ΦΙΛΙΠΠΩΝ is inscribed in Greek characters around or beside the type, identifying the issuing city of Philippi in Macedon. The composition is compact and well-centred for this denomination, consistent with the Asiatic hemidrachm standard. |
