Reverse description Incuse square die containing a bird, likely an owl facing left in the Athenian tradition, accompanied by a lion or feline figure to the right in a crouching or attacking posture. Aramaic inscription 𐡇𐡁𐡃𐡀 appears in the field, possibly a mint or magistrate name. The incuse design with a beaded or rope border at the base is typical of the Philistian coinage of the Persian period, blending Attic iconographic conventions with local Semitic epigraphy.
