Reverse description A grape arbor or vine trellis is depicted in full, with clusters of grapes and twisting branches filling the design, enclosed within a linear square border. The vine motif, emblematic of Maroneia's renowned wine production, is rendered with considerable detail, showing multiple bunches of grapes hanging from the central vine. Above the linear square, along the upper border, appears the first part of the magistrate's name in Greek characters, while the remainder of the inscription continues below, identifying the issuing authority. The overall composition is symmetrical and characteristic of the distinctive reverse type used by Maroneian staters throughout the classical period.
