| Beschrijving voorzijde | King Smbat depicted as an equestrian figure in right profile, mounted on a horse, holding aloft a patriarchal (double-barred) cross in his raised right hand. The figure is rendered in a bold, stylized medieval Armenian fashion typical of Cilician hammered coinage. The surrounding field bears a partial Armenian legend. The irregular flan and high-relief striking are characteristic of late 13th-century Cilician copper issues. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Smbat, brother of Hetum II, ruled Cilician Armenia twice in brief and turbulent intervals — his first reign lasted only from 1296 to 1298 before Hetum reclaimed the throne. The copper kardez issued under his name survives in small numbers, a function of both the brevity of his rule and the political instability that made consistent minting difficult. The Cilician mint was operating under persistent Mongol suzerainty during this period, with the Ilkhanate exercising real influence over Armenian affairs even as the dynasty's internal succession struggles played out.
