| Reverse description | An eagle with closed wings stands in profile to the right atop an Ionic capital, its talons gripping the architectural element with naturalistic precision. The Greek letters F (digamma) and A flank the eagle to the left and right respectively in the field, representing the ethnic abbreviation of Elis (FА = FAΛEION). The bold, well-modelled figure of the eagle, sacred bird of Zeus, dominates the flan, conveying divine authority in keeping with the sanctuary coinage of Olympia. The Ionic capital below provides a distinctive architectural motif unique to this series. |
