| Reverse description | The lunar deity Mên depicted standing facing, with head turned to the left, wearing the characteristic Phrygian cap adorned with a crescent. The god holds a long sceptre in one hand and a patera in the other, presented in the formal hieratic style typical of Lydian civic coinage. The reverse legend, arranged around the field within a beaded border, records the name and title of the local magistrate responsible for the issue. |
