| Reverse description | Eagle standing to right atop a winged thunderbolt, its head turned to face right and wings folded at rest. The thunderbolt, a traditional Macedonian dynastic symbol, is depicted with radiating volutes and outspread wings beneath the eagle's talons. The Greek royal legend ΒΑΣΙΛΕΩΣ ΣAPIA is arranged in the right field, reading downward. The overall composition follows Hellenistic royal coinage conventions adapted for Skythian dynastic usage. The strike is somewhat uneven, with portions of the legend weakly impressed due to flan irregularity. |
