| Reverse description | Within a shallow circular incuse, an amphora depicted in profile occupies the central field, with a bunch of grapes positioned to the left. The ethnic abbreviation Θ-E (for Thebai) is inscribed across the lower field, flanking the amphora, identifying the issuing city. The incuse square technique is characteristic of early Greek silver coinage from Boeotia. The composition is carefully balanced, with the amphora and grape cluster referencing the agricultural and religious traditions of the region. |
