| Reverse description | A large, finely detailed six-grained ear of barley rendered in high relief, oriented vertically and dominating the field, with the stalk curving elegantly to the right at the base. A kantharos (two-handled drinking cup on a stem) is depicted in the right field beside the stalk. The ethnic legend META is distributed to the left of the ear, and ONA appears below at the base of the stalk, together forming the city's abbreviated name METAPONTION. |
