| Reverse description | A kithara (lyre) with seven strings displayed facing, the instrument's arms terminating in volute-like scrolls and flanked by decorative tendrils or branches in the field. The crossbar at the top of the kithara is adorned with a row of pellets representing the tuning pegs, and circular sound holes are visible on either side of the soundbox. The ethnic legend ΧΑΛΚΙΔΕΩΝ is distributed around the periphery of the field, reading partially above and to the sides of the instrument. The overall design is bold and finely engraved, characteristic of the high-quality die-cutting associated with the Chalkidean League coinage. |
