| Reverse description | Perseus standing facing, holding a harpa (curved sword) in his right hand and the severed head of Medusa (Gorgoneion) in his outstretched left hand, the winged sandals of Perseus often implied by the figural type. The reverse field contains the ethnic inscription ΑΜΙΣΟΥ flanking the figure, along with monograms attributable to Mithridates VI of Pontus serving as mint control marks. The overall composition reflects the Hellenistic artistic vocabulary prevalent in Pontic civic coinage of the late second to early first century BC. |
