| Reverse description | An owl, the sacred bird of Athena, stands facing right with head turned to face the viewer, rendered in fine detail with spread tail feathers visible, perched atop an amphora. A rudder appears to the lower left of the amphora, and Greek monograms flank the central device. The entire composition is enclosed within an olive wreath, a hallmark of the Athenian New Style tetradrachm series. The ethnic ΑΘΕ appears in the field, identifying the issuing city of Athens. |
