| Reverse description | A square meander labyrinth of distinctly swastika form, composed of interlocking right-angled Greek key-pattern corridors arranged symmetrically about a central square. Four pellets are disposed in a square configuration at the centre of the design, evoking the legendary Labyrinth of Knossos associated with the Minotaur myth. The design fills the entire flan and is executed with precision characteristic of Knossian coinage of the late fourth century BC. |
