| Reverse description | An octopus depicted with its body at centre and eight tentacles radiating and curling downward and outward, filling the square incuse punch. The tentacles are rendered with sinuous, curvilinear detail characteristic of early fifth-century Macedonian coinage. The design is set within a shallow square incuse, with no surrounding legend or inscription. |
