| Reverse description | Octopus depicted facing, with bulbous head and eight sinuous tentacles extending radially across the field, rendered with dotted suckers visible along each arm. The creature is shown in a naturalistic yet stylized manner typical of Greek incuse coinage from Magna Graecia. The design fills the flan, with tentacles curling symmetrically to occupy the available space on this small denomination. |
