| Reverse description | A goat stands to the right in a naturalistic pose, rendered with careful attention to musculature and detail. In the lower right field, a caduceus and a petasos serve as secondary symbols, emblematic of Hermes and consistent with the obverse type. The entire composition is enclosed within a shallow incuse square, a hallmark of early Greek coinage technique. The ethnic legend ΑΙΝΙΟΝ appears in the field, identifying the issuing city of Ainos in Thrace. |
