| Reverse description | The eponymous nymph Larissa is depicted seated to right upon a backless throne, her left hand raised in a gesture of address or blessing, while her right hand holds a phiale. Beneath the throne, a cista mystica is visible, serving as an attribute alluding to religious or civic ceremony. The legend ΛΑΡΙϞΑ is disposed around the figure in Greek characters, identifying the issuing city. The composition reflects the refined figurative style of early Classical Thessalian silver coinage, combining civic iconography with graceful anthropomorphic representation. |
