| Reverse description | A bull, depicted in a kneeling or crouching posture with head lowered, rendered in profile to the left; the animal's musculature is boldly modeled in the local Arkadian style. Below the bull, a figure — possibly Herakles — wrestles or subdues the animal, grasping its horn. The ethnic legend ΤΕΓΕΑ appears in the upper field above the group, identifying the issuing city of Tegea in Arkadia. |
