Reverse description A bull standing to the left in profile, rendered with vigorous naturalism, its head turned slightly forward and its tail raised. The animal is depicted with careful attention to musculature and anatomical proportion, consistent with the Thessalian tradition of bovine imagery on civic bronzes. The ethnic legend ΓΟΝΝΕΩΝ appears in the upper field above the bull, identifying the issuing city of Gonnos. The ground line beneath the bull is plain, and the flan retains characteristic irregular edges typical of hammered bronze issues.
