| Reverse description | Forepart of a bull advancing to the right, rendered with muscular detail, occupying the upper portion of the design field. The magistrate name ΛΕΩΣ (Leos) appears as a legend above the bull, while an olive branch is positioned to the left. The ethnic abbreviation ΣΑ and an associated control monogram appear below the bull's forepart. The entire design is set within a shallow incuse square, a characteristic feature of early Samian coinage, with plain fields surrounding the central type. |
