| Reverse description | A bull shown kneeling or charging to the right, rendered with compact musculature in a dynamic pose typical of Massalian bronze issues of the period. The animal is depicted with its head lowered, forelegs bent, and hindquarters raised, conveying motion. A ground line separates the main type from the inscription below. The legend, partially visible due to die wear and flan irregularity, identifies the issuing civic authority of Massalia. |
