Reverse description Herakles seated left upon a rocky outcrop draped with a lion's skin, his muscular figure shown in three-quarter view. In his right hand he holds a club upright, while his left hand rests upon the rock beside him. To the right in the field, a bow is depicted, serving as an additional attribute of the hero. The composition is characteristic of the civic coinage of Thermai Himerensis, reflecting the city's strong cultic association with Herakles.
