| Reverse description | Apollo Grynios depicted standing in three-quarter view to the right, holding a laurel branch in his extended right hand and a phiale (libation bowl) in his left, referencing his celebrated oracle sanctuary at Grynion in Aeolis. Three monograms appear in the left field as mint control marks. At the god's feet rest an omphalos and an amphora, further alluding to his prophetic and Delphic associations. The entire composition is enclosed within a beaded border framed by a laurel wreath, with the ethnic legend MYPINAIΩN inscribed prominently. |
