Reverse description Standing draped figure of Apollo facing left in three-quarter view, wearing a long chiton and himation, his head turned slightly toward the viewer and adorned with a laureate wreath. The god holds a long spear or sceptre vertically in his right hand, with the shaft resting on the ground, while his left arm is drawn across his body. To the right of the figure, the Greek legend MAYΣΣΩΛΛO is inscribed vertically in the field, reading downward. The composition is set within a plain circular border on an irregular planchet characteristic of hand-struck coinage.
