| Reverse description | A grapevine bearing multiple bunches of grapes is depicted at center, its tendrils and foliage rendered in careful detail, enclosed within a linear square border. The entire design is set within a deep incuse square, typical of Thracian coinage of this period and reflective of the city's celebrated viticultural identity. The magistrate's name ΜΗΤΡΟΦΩΝ (Metrophon) is inscribed within the incuse square, identifying the issuing authority. |
