| Reverse description | Female head in left profile, identified as the nymph Kallisto, set within a recessed incuse square. The hair is rendered in closely packed parallel ridges drawn back from the face and bound with a tainia (fillet); a necklace is visible at the base of the neck. The treatment is characteristic of the severe style, with a strong, archaizing quality typical of early fifth-century Peloponnesian silver coinage. The ethnic abbreviation ΑΡ appears in the field, referencing the city of Kleitor within the Arcadian confederation. |
