| Reverse description | Within a shallow incuse square, a nude male figure — identified as Apollo or a heroic deity — strides vigorously to the right, wrestling or subduing a griffin; he grasps the creature's wing with his left hand while raising his right arm in a striking motion. The scene is rendered in high relief with anatomically detailed musculature, characteristic of the finest Classical Greek die engraving. The magistrate's name legend [EΠI] THΛEMA[ΞO] appears vertically divided in the left and right fields, identifying the eponymous magistrate Telemachos. A ground line runs beneath the figures. |
