| Reverse description | Draped bust of Aphrodite facing right, the hair rendered in careful detail, set within a shallow incuse square. The civic ethnic K-NI appears in Greek characters to the left of the head and below the chin, identifying the issuing city of Knidos. The incuse square forms a geometric border framing the design, a hallmark of early Greek coinage technique. |
