| Reverse description | The Great King of Persia, crowned and robed, is depicted seated in a chariot driven by a charioteer, the two-horse team galloping vigorously to the left. An attendant stands to the rear, facing left. Below the chariot group, an incuse square contains a goat running left, the whole scene enclosed within a dotted border set within an incuse circle. The reverse iconography affirms Achaemenid royal authority over the Phoenician satrapy. |
