| Reverse description | A double-headed axe (labrys) with a broad, symmetrical blade set upon a long handle, centrally placed within the field; the instrument is flanked by a bunch of grapes to the lower left and a pomegranate or similar fruit to the lower right, both serving as secondary symbols of the island's fertility. The ethnic legend ΤΕΝΕΔΙΩΝ arches above the axe head in bold Greek characters. The entire composition is enclosed within a wreath of olive or laurel branches tied at the base, framing the design in the Hellenistic civic tradition. |
