| Reverse description | An eagle shown facing, with wings spread broadly to either side, its head turned to the right and a wreath held in its beak, standing upon a facing long-horned bull's head. Pellets appear to the left and right of the bull's head, serving as decorative field elements. The reverse legend in Greek is disposed around the eagle type. The composition exemplifies the distinctive iconographic tradition of Carrhae's civic coinage under Roman imperial authority. |
