| Reverse description | The helmeted war-deity Phanebalos (Baal of Ascalon in his martial aspect) stands facing left on a short rectangular base, depicted in full figure. He brandishes a harpa (curved sword) in his raised right hand while his left arm bears a round shield; a palm-branch is also held, emblematic of the city of Ascalon. The surrounding Greek legend is partially preserved, recording the city name Ascalon and the name of the deity together with a partial regnal or civic year numeral. |
