| Reverse description | Eagle standing to right with wings spread, depicted in a bold and dynamic Hellenistic style. To the right of the eagle, a bunch of grapes is visible as a secondary symbol, likely a civic emblem of Abydos. The entire design is enclosed within a laurel wreath tied at the bottom with a ribbon. The ethnic legend ABYΔHNΩN and the magistrate's name ΦEPENIKOY appear in the field, identifying the issuing city of Abydos and the eponymous official Pherenikos responsible for the issue. |
