Full figure of wolf seated right

Forepart of wolf right, crescent moon with horns down in left field

Note: Sear GCV does not list any examples from Tarsos with a wolf on both sides
of the coin, but the side with the forepart of a wolf is the same style as
other example from Tarsos I have had. Appears to have been clipped in
antiquity, based on the arc of the pellets.
