| Reverse description | A triskeles motif occupies the central field, its three legs arranged in rotational symmetry, a hallmark of Lycian dynastic reverse types. A dolphin is depicted in the field as an additional symbol. Surrounding the triskeles, a Lycian legend naming the dynast Mithrapata appears in varying orthographic forms across different die combinations. The entire composition is set within a shallow incuse square, typical of early Greek hammered coinage technique. |
