| Reverse description | A bunch of grapes depicted in high relief, shown hanging with individual berries rendered as distinct raised pellets arranged in a naturalistic cluster with a short stalk at the apex. The design is contained within a plain linear circle (incuse border), set against a flat, unadorned field. The grape cluster is the principal civic emblem of Methymna, a city on the island of Lesbos renowned for its viticulture, and serves as the sole device on this diminutive reverse. |
