| Reverse description | Standing figure of Athena Nikephoros facing left, wearing a helmet and long chiton, holding Nike in her extended right hand and a long spear and shield in her left. The deity stands within the field with Greek legends arranged in two vertical columns flanking the central figure, a typical compositional arrangement for late Cappadocian royal drachms. The style reflects the declining artistic quality characteristic of the final reigns of the Ariarathid dynasty. A year-date and possible mint control marks may appear in the lower field, though worn on this example. |
