| Reverse description | A bull standing left, rendered in fine relief, occupying the central field within an olive wreath border. The animal's head is turned to face the viewer frontally, with a bucranium or frontal bovine head depicted prominently to the right of the bull's body, hung with a fillet or garland. The ethnic ΕΡΕΤΡΙΕΩΝ appears in two lines above and below the bull — ΕΡΕΤΡΙΕΩΝ arching across the upper field and ΦΙΛΙΠΠΟΣ (the magistrate's name) inscribed along the lower exergual line — all within a continuous olive wreath that encircles the entire design. |
