| Reverse description | Facing bucranium (bull's head) depicted en face with wide-spread horns, rendered in bold high relief characteristic of Assos civic coinage. A grape bunch, symbol of the city's agricultural prosperity, is positioned to the right of the bull's head in the field. The ethnic legend ΑΣΣΙΩΝ is distributed around the central device in Greek characters, divided between the upper, left, and lower fields, encircling the bull's head. The composition is bold and symmetrical, occupying the full flan in a style typical of 4th century BCE Troad civic issues. |
