| Reverse description | Standing figure of Ba'al Orthosia facing right, flanked symmetrically by two winged griffins rearing on either side, a composition evoking the ancient Near Eastern Master of Animals iconographic tradition adapted into Hellenistic civic coinage. A Greek inscription appears in the upper field above the central figure. The reverse design is contained within the irregular flan, typical of hammered bronzes from Phoenician civic mints of the late Hellenistic period. |
