| Reverse description | Panther standing to left with raised right foreleg and a broken spear held in its open mouth, rendered in a naturalistic Hellenistic style. A control symbol appears to the right in the field. The reverse legend, disposed in two lines around the type, reads ΒΑΣΙΛΕΩΣ ΑΝΤΙΟΧΟΥ ΕΠΙΦΑΝΟΥΣ ΔΙΟΝΥΣΟΥ, identifying the king by his full royal titulature as Antiochos Epiphanes Dionysos. The panther is an attribute of Dionysos, reinforcing the divine associations claimed by Antiochos VI. |
