Reverse description A bull advancing slowly to the right with head lowered in a posture of deliberate movement, a type emblematic of the city of Thourioi and likely referencing the Sybaris bull iconography. The ethnic legend ΘOΥΡIΩN arcs around the upper field. Below the bull's body appears the letter Δ, serving as a control mark, while a fish swimming to the left occupies the exergue beneath the groundline, referencing the maritime character of the colony.
