背面描述	Incuse square containing a forepart of a bull advancing to the right, rendered in relief within the recessed field. The bull's muscular neck and lowered head are depicted with confident archaic draftsmanship. A small heart-shaped symbol appears in the upper left of the incuse square. The abbreviated civic legend ϟΚ Ο is inscribed within the field, referencing the issuing city of Skotoussa. The reverse employs the standard incuse technique common to Thessalian fractional silver coinage of the early Classical period.

附加信息	Skotoussa was a minor Thessalian polis in the Pelasgiotis region, and its independent coinage output was limited — this obol falls within a narrow window of civic autonomy before the city's political subordination within the Thessalian League tightened. The BCD collection, from which this reference derives, remains the definitive private assemblage of Thessalian coinage ever assembled, and lot 1331 from the 2006 Leu sale set the benchmark attribution for this type.
