Reverse description Standing figure of Marsyas in three-quarter view, arms raised and outstretched, depicted in a dynamic pose typical of the mythological subject as rendered on Apameian civic bronzes. The Greek civic legend is arranged in three lines to the left and right of the figure, reading the city name and the names of the magistrates responsible for the issue. The style is characteristic of late Hellenistic die-cutting, with somewhat rough execution consistent with a small-denomination bronze.
