Reverse description A prominent five-pointed star (pentagram) occupies the centre of a shallow incuse square, the points of the star extending nearly to the borders of the incuse. The triangular segments between the star's points are clearly defined, creating a bold geometric design. Around the pentagram, within the corners and upper register of the incuse square, the Greek ethnic inscription ΠITANA is distributed, identifying the issuing city of Pitane in Aeolis. The overall composition is crisp and well-struck for the type, with the incuse border visible on all sides.
