| Reverse description | A dove in flight to left with wings spread, set within a shallow incuse circle bordered by a wreath of laurel or olive leaves. The bird is rendered with carefully detailed wing feathers, and the composition fills the recessed field with naturalistic grace. The letters Σ-Η (abbreviation for Sikyon) appear in the field to the right. The incuse border and floral wreath are hallmarks of Sikyonian coinage of this period. |
