Reverse description	A coiled serpent, sacred to Asklepios, occupies the centre of the reverse field, with the ethnic ΚΩ positioned below the coils. The magistrates' names ΛΟΧΟΣ and ΠΑΡΜΕ appear to the left and right of the serpent respectively, serving as the names of the issuing magistrates. The entire design is set within a shallow square incuse (plinthophoron), a hallmark of the Rhodian weight standard coinage. The denomination mark Δ (delta, indicating the tetrobol) appears below the incuse square.
