| Beschrijving keerzijde | Triskeles motif centered within a shallow incuse square, with three curved legs radiating from a central ring, rendered in bold relief. Lycian script characters are disposed around the triskeles within the incuse square: the dynast's name MITHRAPATA is partially rendered in Lycian letters visible in the field. The incuse square shows well-defined recessed borders typical of fifth- and fourth-century Lycian dynastic coinage. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Mithrapata ruled as one of the more assertive Lycian dynasts during a period when Persian satrapal authority over the region was nominally intact but increasingly ignored in practice. His name is a compound of the Iranian *Mithra*, reflecting the Iranian cultural influence that penetrated the Lycian dynastic class under Achaemenid administration — yet his coins were struck to local Lycian weight standards, not Persian ones. The Müseler reference places him firmly within a dynastic sequence that used coinage as an assertion of local autonomy rather than Persian delegation.
