Reverse description An owl stands facing right in three-quarter profile, rendered in the characteristic archaic Greco-Italian manner with large frontal eyes and detailed feather work. The inscription VALENTIA appears in the field, identifying the issuing colony. Four pellets, denoting the triens as one-third of the as, are placed in the field alongside a secondary symbol — which varies by emission and may include a star, dolphin, Nike, bull, wreath, carnyx, crescent, lyre, tripod, fly, shell, or crayfish — serving as a mint control mark. The reverse field is plain with no exergue line.
