Reverse description An ornate Kantharos (wine amphora) depicted in three-quarter relief at center, with elegant curved handles rising above the rim and terminating in volutes adorned with ivy or vine foliage. The vessel rests on a stepped base and is rendered with fine detail, reflecting the high-quality die engraving of Theban federal coinage. To the left of the kantharos appears the magistrate's ethnic abbreviation FA, and to the right ΣT, identifying the issuing magistrate of the city of Thespiai or a Theban official. The inscription flanks the central device symmetrically within a plain, broad field.
