Reverse description A coiled serpent occupies the central field, its body rendered in an S-shaped curve with the head raised and turned, a hallmark of Pergamene civic bronze coinage. A monogram appears to the left of the serpent, and the inscription ΦΙΛΕΤΑΙΡΟΥ runs along the right side of the field, referencing Philetairos, the dynastic founder of the Attalid kingdom, in whose name these coins continued to be struck posthumously.
