Obverse description Griffin seated to right in a boldly rendered archaic style, with wings raised and folded against the body, forelegs extended forward, and leonine haunches visible beneath. The creature's feathered crest and beak are clearly articulated. A barley grain is depicted before the griffin in the left field, serving as a civic or religious symbol associated with the Sindi people. The flan is irregular, typical of hand-struck issues of this period and region.
