| Beschrijving keerzijde | A sword in its sheath depicted vertically at center, with the hilt uppermost and the chape of the scabbard visible at the base, serving as an emblem of military authority. The Greek legend EYΠO appears to the right of the sword, while ΛEMOY is inscribed to the left, together reading EYΠOΛEMOY (genitive of Eupolemos, 'of Eupolemos'). A monogram appears beneath the legend in the lower field, likely denoting a magistrate or mint official. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Eupolemos was a Macedonian officer who seized control of Karia around 315 BC, initially as a subordinate of Antigonos Monophthalmos during the wars of the Diadochi. His authority over the region was contested and fragile — when Antigonos fell at Ipsos in 301 BC, local dynasts across Asia Minor scrambled to reposition themselves, and Eupolemos appears to have maintained a degree of autonomous control at Mylasa through that turbulence. These bronzes represent one of the few tangible traces of his administration, a minor dynast whose name survives almost entirely through numismatic evidence rather than literary sources.
