Stater

Descrizione del dritto	Europa seated half-right within the branches of a plane tree, her body rendered in high relief with flowing drapery gathered at the waist. The figure is depicted in a relaxed, contemplative posture, her head turned slightly downward. The stylized trunk and branches of the tree frame the composition on either side, rendered with bold, naturalistic strokes characteristic of Cretan die-cutting of the late Classical period. The field is plain, with no legend or inscription.

Descrizione del rovescio	A bull advancing to the right in a powerful, naturalistic stance, its head turned back to the left (reverted), rendered in high relief with careful anatomical detail including musculature and a richly textured mane. The animal's body fills the flan, with the raised foreleg conveying a sense of vigorous movement. A leafy branch or plant element appears before the bull in the right field. The composition is set on a plain exergual line, with no legend, consistent with the aniconic coinage tradition of Gortyna in the late Classical period.
