Reverse description Hecate is depicted riding upon a lion advancing to the left, a composition emblematic of her chthonic and liminal attributes. A radiate lion's head appears to the right of the field, reinforcing the iconographic theme. The magistrate's legend ΕΠΙ ΛΕΟΝΤΟΥ surrounds the design, indicating the coin was issued under the authority of the civic official Leontos. The reverse type reflects the religious syncretism characteristic of Carian civic coinage during the Severan period.
