| Reverse description | Owl standing to the left in profile with head turned to face the viewer, depicted in the distinctive style associated with Kamarina's civic coinage. The bird clutches a lizard firmly in its raised talon, a device unique to this series and emblematic of the city's marshy environment. The ethnic inscription ΚΑΜΑ appears in the field, and three pellets arranged in the exergue serve as the mark of value for the tetras denomination. |
