| Reverse description | A large Greek letter Alpha (Α) dominates the central field, flanked above by the letters Pi (Π) and Rho (Ρ), forming the civic abbreviation for Argos. A bunch of grapes appears to the left or right of the central letter, serving as a secondary symbol, while a club is positioned below. The entire design is contained within a shallow incuse square, a hallmark of early and transitional Greek coinage technique. The combination of civic monogram and symbols reflects the standard reverse type of Argive hemidrachms of the late Classical to early Hellenistic period. |
