| Reverse description | A running crab depicted in profile, rendered in a compact, stylized manner typical of Sicilian coinage of the period; the carapace is finely articulated with incised detail, and the claws and legs are clearly delineated. Above or beside the crab appears the abbreviated ethnic legend ΛΙ in Greek characters, identifying the issuing city of Lipara. The composition occupies the central field of the otherwise plain flan, with no border or exergual line. |
