Descrizione del rovescio	The mythological hero Thessalos depicted in dynamic action, leaping from his horse onto the back of a bull charging to the right, grasping the animal's head with both hands by means of a restraining band. The horse gallops in the background to the right. The ethnic legend ΘΕΣΣΑΛΩΝ is distributed around the field, with the magistrate name ΕΥΒΙΟΤΟΥ above and ΠΕΤΡΑΙΟΣ below, identifying the two eponymous officials responsible for the issue.

Informazioni aggiuntive	Struck in the twilight of the Thessalian League's autonomous coinage, this issue falls within the critical window between Actium and Augustus's formal reorganization of the Greek east — a period when civic and federal minting authorities were rapidly losing ground to imperial prerogative. The magistrate names Eubiotos and Petraios appear together on a small cluster of issues, suggesting a brief joint tenure rather than sequential terms. Rogers catalogued fewer than a handful of die combinations for this pairing.
