| Reverse description | An eagle displayed with wings fully spread stands facing on a frontal long-horned bull's head, the eagle's own head turned to the right with a laurel wreath held in its beak — a distinctive type of the Carrhae mint referencing local religious symbolism. Small pellets appear to the left and right of the bull's head in the lower field. The Greek tribunician legend is distributed across the field and periphery. |
