| Reverse description | Man-faced bull (the personification of a river deity) walking to right with head turned to face the viewer, a motif emblematic of Campanian coinage. A winged Victory flies above to the right, reaching down to place a wreath upon the bull's head. The ethnic legend NEOΠOΛITΩN appears, along with the magistrate's control mark ΘE, positioned in the field or exergue. The composition reflects the strong Hellenistic artistic influence prevalent in Neapolitan mint production of the late 4th to early 3rd century BC. |
