| Reverse description | Athena Itonia striding vigorously to the right, depicted as a warrior goddess in full martial panoply. She raises her right arm to hurl a spear while extending her round shield forward in her left hand. The ethnic legend ΘΕΣΣΑΛΩΝ appears in the field, with the magistrate's secondary name broken into letters Σ-Ι / Μ-Υ disposed to the left and right of the figure. A fly, a characteristic symbol appearing on Thessalian League staters of this period, is depicted in flight above the spear to the right. The vigorous, striding pose reflects the well-established iconographic tradition of Athena Itonia as the principal deity of the Thessalian League. |
