| Reverse description | The Anatolian lunar deity Mên is depicted on horseback, riding right at a brisk pace, with a double axe (labrys) resting over his right shoulder — a standard iconographic attribute linking the god to local Lydian religious traditions. The horse is shown in animated motion, its forelegs raised. The Greek dedicatory legend of the presiding high priest Nikomachos runs in the field, partially to the left and along the lower periphery of the coin. |
