| Reverse description | Centaur-archer (Sagittarius) advancing to the right, depicted in the act of drawing a bow, with a military standard visible to the right of the figure. The type is characteristic of Rhesaena civic coinage and likely alludes to the local cult or military significance of the city. The Greek letter Δ appears in the field, serving as a denomination or series mark. The coin surface bears the typical green patina and irregular flan of Mesopotamian provincial bronzes. |
