| Reverse description | Herakles seated in three-quarter view to the left, his head turned to the right, upon a lion skin draped over a rocky outcrop. His right hand supports a club set vertically upon his knee, while his left arm rests upon his left thigh in a pose of repose. The bilingual eponymous magistrate's legend EΠI ΦIΛA-ΔOΣ (with sigma rendered retrograde) is inscribed along the sides of the central type. The entire composition is contained within a shallow incuse square, a hallmark of Abderite tetradrachm coinage, framing the design with clean, squared borders. |
