| Reverse description | An owl, the emblematic bird of Athena, stands to the right with head facing on a Panathenaic amphora, rendered in the distinctive style of New Style Athenian coinage. To the left field appears a magistrate's monogram, while to the right an eagle stands to the right above a second monogram. The letter Δ appears on the body of the amphora, with the letters ΣΦ inscribed below. The entire design is encircled within an olive wreath in high relief, a hallmark feature introduced on Athenian New Style tetradrachms from circa 165 BC onward. |
