| Reverse description | Two opposing crescents arranged back to back in a composition mirroring the obverse, with four small pellets distributed around the central junction of the crescents within the flat field. The pellets likely function as additional value indicators or decorative elements. The strike is characteristic of small hammered fractional silver coinage from Tarentum in the Hellenistic period. |
