| Obverse description | Bearded male head in right profile, likely depicting Zeus or a local river god, with flowing hair rendered in detailed relief. The portrait is enclosed within a dotted border (grenetis) that frames the design along the coin's periphery. The style is consistent with Hellenistic civic bronze coinage of Pamphylia, exhibiting naturalistic facial features and bold die engraving. |
