| Reverse description | Helmeted head of Athena in right profile, wearing a Corinthian helmet pushed back on the head and adorned with a decorative crest. The goddess's hair falls in wavy locks beneath the helmet, and her facial features are rendered with refined archaic elegance. The field to the left bears the Greek letter alpha (A), the civic initial of Ambracia. The entire design is framed by an encircling olive wreath with detailed leaves and berries, a characteristic feature of Ambracian staters distinguishing them from other Corinthian-type issues. |
