| Beschrijving voorzijde | Turreted head of Tyche facing right, wearing a mural crown with multiple turrets, rendered in fine relief within a dotted border. The hair is neatly arranged beneath the crown, and the portrait exhibits the characteristic Hellenistic civic style associated with personifications of city fortune. The facial features are well-modeled with a straight nose and delicate profile typical of late Hellenistic die-cutting. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Forepart of a bridled horse prancing to the left, depicted in energetic Hellenistic style with musculature rendered in bold relief. The horse's head is turned slightly, with the bridle clearly delineated. The ethnic inscription ΑΙΓΕΑΙΩΝ appears in the field, identifying the issuing city of Aigeai in Cilicia. The composition is contained within a dotted border, consistent with the civic bronze coinage of the region during the late Hellenistic period. |

Aigeai was a coastal city in Cilicia whose civic coinage of this period reflects the region's complicated political position — nominally under Seleucid authority through much of the second century, then increasingly subject to Roman interference as the dynasty collapsed. By the late second century, Cilician cities were operating with significant de facto autonomy, issuing bronze civic coinage to meet local exchange needs that the retreating Seleucid administration could no longer reliably supply. The SNG France 2288 reference places this piece within a well-documented but sparsely studied municipal series.
