| Reverse description | A man-headed bull — the personification of the river god Sebethos — stands to the right with its head turned to face the viewer, conveying a powerful civic symbol of the city of Neapolis. Above, the winged figure of Nike flies to the right in the act of crowning the bull, holding a wreath aloft. The ethnic legend ΝΕΟΠΟΛΙΤΗΣ is inscribed in the exergue or field, identifying the issuing city. The composition reflects the rich artistic traditions of late 4th-century BC Campanian coinage. |
