| Reverse description | A capricorn — the mythological sea-goat combining a goat's forebody with a fish tail — depicted bounding to the right in a lively, naturalistic rendering. The inscription EPPI appears above the creature and COM F below, divided by the figure, referencing Eppillus son of Commios. A beaded border frames the design on the irregular flan. The capricorn device reflects direct borrowing from Roman imperial iconography, notably the badge of Augustus. |
