| Reverse description | Zeus's eagle, the sacred bird of Olympia, depicted standing to the right with its head turned sharply to the left in alert posture, wings tightly folded against the body. The eagle stands upon a rocky ground line rendered in low relief. The entire device is encircled by a laurel wreath, its leaves and berries rendered with careful detail, filling the coin's field to the edge. The composition reflects the canonical Elean reverse type associated with the Olympic Games coinage series of the 4th century BC. |
