| Reverse description | Helmeted head of Athena facing right, rendered in early archaic style, set within a shallow incuse square with a dotted border. The city ethnic MAΘYMNAIOΣ is inscribed vertically alongside the head. The incuse square is characteristic of early electrum and silver coinage of the eastern Aegean, framing the design with a recessed geometric border. |
