Beschrijving voorzijde Laureate head of Zeus facing right, rendered in the Hellenistic tradition with a mature, bearded visage and flowing hair partially visible beneath the wreath. The portrait fills the flan with bold, high relief typical of provincial Pisidian bronze coinage. The field is plain and unadorned, with no encircling legend. The die engraving displays competent local workmanship consistent with late Republican-period civic bronze issues of Asia Minor.

Aanvullende informatie

Termessos, the Pisidian city perched high in the Taurus Mountains, was one of the few settlements in the region that successfully resisted Alexander the Great — he judged the siege too costly and moved on. That independence persisted for centuries. Rome granted Termessos the status of a free city, formalized under a lex data around 71 BC, which is precisely why the city issued its own bronze coinage through the late Republican period without Roman interference or oversight.

The SNG France 2107 reference places this piece within a well-documented but modestly sized series.
