| Reverse description | A high-relief facing bust of the ancient Greek tragedian Aeschylus dominates the central field, depicting him as a mature, bearded man with curly hair and a solemn expression, rendered in a classical sculptural style. The background is covered with continuous lines of ancient Greek text excerpted from his dramatic works, creating a rich, textured field. An inscription in the lower left exergue reads 'ΑΙΣΧΥΛΟΣ 524-455 π.Χ.' identifying the subject by name and life dates. The engraver's signature appears in the lower right of the field. |
