| Reverse description | Hermes standing facing, depicted in the round in frontal stance with slight weight shift. The god holds a palm branch in one hand and a caduceus in the other, both attributes consistent with his role as divine messenger and patron of commerce. The royal titulature in Greek appears in two vertical columns flanking the central figure, reading from left to right around the type. The design is characteristic of the late Seleucid bronze coinage under Demetrios III. |
