Reverse description Facing cult image of Zeus, depicted in stylized form as a composite device: a large poppy seed head or floral element at the top flanked by two volute-like wings, with a conical cult object or omphalos below, all rendered within a recessed incuse square. The archaic letters F (digamma) and A flank the central device on either side, forming the abbreviated ethnic FА (for FALIS or the sanctuary of Elis/Olympia). The design reflects the sacred symbolism associated with the sanctuary at Olympia.
