Reverse description A dove in full flight, wings outstretched and spread upward, depicted flying to the left across an open field. The bird's plumage is rendered with careful detail, with individual feathers visible on the wings and a fan-shaped tail. Above the tail, the ethnic abbreviation ΣΙ (with Σ in retrograde form) identifies the issuing city of Sikyon. The dove is the civic symbol of Sikyon, referencing the city's name and serving as a longstanding emblem on its coinage.
