| Reverse description | A bull in full charge to the right, rendered with vigorous naturalism within a shallow incuse square framed by a raised linear border. The animal is depicted in a dynamic striding pose with head lowered and all four legs extended, conveying powerful forward motion. Above the bull, the magistrate's name is inscribed in two lines of archaic Greek lettering across the upper field. A ground line beneath the bull separates the figure from the lower border. The composition exemplifies the accomplished die-cutting characteristic of Abderite silver coinage during the early fourth century BC. |
