| Reverse description | Celticised seated figure depicted in left profile, derived from the Athena enthroned type of the Lysimachos stater coinage of Kolchis. The figure extends one arm forward holding a small subsidiary figure, reinterpreting the Nike motif of the Hellenistic prototype in a markedly barbarised idiom. Vestigial legends, degraded beyond legibility into sequences of dashes, appear in the left and right fields. A trident symbol is placed in the lower left field below the seated figure, serving as a distinguishing mint or issuer mark. |
