| Reverse description | Two dolphins swimming in a circular arrangement to the left, their bodies forming a rounded, dynamic composition within the coin's field. Between the two dolphins, a wolf stands in profile to the right, serving as the civic emblem of Argos. Above the design, the ethnic inscription ΑΡΓΕΙΩΝ ('of the Argives') identifies the issuing city-state. The combination of dolphins and wolf is a distinctive and well-documented reverse type of Argive silver coinage of this period. |
