| Reverse description | An eagle displayed in left profile, wings folded, perched above a dolphin swimming to the left, both rendered in bold relief characteristic of Greek archaic coinage. The composition fills the reverse field with confident, stylized naturalism. The city ethnic legend ΙΣTΡΙΗ appears in Greek characters along the upper field. A small control mark or monogram is visible beneath the dolphin in the lower exergual area. The overall design reflects the maritime and civic symbolism of the Black Sea colony of Istros. |
