| Reverse description | A large lyre, depicted frontally with clearly articulated strings and a rectangular sound box set on a low base, occupies the central field. Two small figures, likely erotes or attendant figures, flank the instrument on either side. The Oscan inscription in the ancient Italic script reading 'kapu' appears to the left of the central device, identifying the issuing city of Capua. The entire design is contained within a dotted border, consistent with the obverse treatment. |
