Reverse description A ram advances to the right within a recessed incuse square, which is itself framed by a linear (dotted) inner border square. The ram is depicted in profile with naturalistic musculature, its head lowered slightly. To the right of the animal, a cornstalk (grain ear) rises vertically, serving as a subsidiary symbol identifying the magistrate's issue. The retrograde or standard Greek ethnic legend ΕΠΙ ΘΡΑΣVΟΣ, naming the eponymous magistrate Thrasys, is inscribed within the incuse square, identifying this as a civic issue struck under his authority.
