| Reverse description | Poseidon Pelagaios standing left, his right foot raised and resting upon a rocky promontory, the god's nude muscular figure rendered in a dynamic contrapposto pose. He holds a long trident upright in his right hand, while his left arm is outstretched for balance. In the left field, a royal monogram appears above a club, the latter being a symbol associated with the Antigonid dynasty. The reverse legend ΔΗΜΗΤΡΙΟΥ ΒΑΣΙΛΕΩΣ (of King Demetrius) is disposed in the field, identifying the issuing authority in Greek script. |
