| Reverse description | Standing figure of Dionysus, facing, with head turned to the left, depicted nude or semi-draped in the conventional divine type. The god holds a kantharos in his extended right hand and a long, fillet-adorned thyrsus in his left hand. At his feet crouches a panther, the sacred animal of Dionysus, a standard attribute in provincial coinage referencing the deity's mythological associations. The ethnic legend ΛΑΕΡΤΕΙΤωΝ, identifying the civic authority of Laertes, appears in the field. The composition reflects the widespread use of Dionysiac imagery in the coinage of cities in Cilicia Trachea and the surrounding regions. |
