| Beschrijving voorzijde | Radiate head of Helios facing right, the crown of long straight rays emanating from the hair in characteristic Hellenistic fashion; a monogram appears in the left field behind the head. The portrait is rendered with fine detail, exhibiting wavy locks framing the face, consistent with late Hellenistic civic bronze coinage of Cilicia. A beaded border runs along the coin's periphery. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Soloi was one of the principal Greek cities of Cilicia, prosperous enough to maintain its own bronze coinage well into the period of Roman provincial reorganization. The city gave its name — via notoriously poor Greek spoken there — to the word "solecism." Its civic bronze issues of this period reflect a municipality still operating with meaningful local autonomy even as Rome consolidated control over the eastern Mediterranean following the settlement of 64 BC under Pompey, when Cilicia was formally organized as a province.
