| Reverse description | A prominent ΕΡ monogram — comprising the letters epsilon and rho ligated — occupies the center of the field, with the ethnic abbreviation ΔΙ (for Διονύσου or as a secondary magistrate's mark) placed immediately below. The entire central device is enclosed within a circular wreath of grain ears, their stalks and heads rendered in fine relief, referencing the agricultural symbolism of Demeter's cult at Hermione. The overall composition is compact and well-centered within the die, consistent with Argolic minting conventions of the early third century BC. |
