| Reverse description | A stout amphora depicted facing, its ovoid body flanked by two curved handles, each decorated with hanging bunches of grapes, referencing the vine-growing culture of the region. The vessel is set within a dotted border, with the Greek ethnic legend KΥΔΩ partially visible in the field to the right, identifying the issuing city of Kydonia. The overall composition is compact and well-centred given the small module of the flan. |
