| Reverse description | A lyre depicted in high relief at the center of a deeply struck incuse square, serving as the principal emblem of Apollo and the Lycian League. The Greek ethnic legend ΛYKIΩN appears along the upper border of the incuse square, identifying the issuing authority. The Lycian city magistrate's letters Λ-I, denoting the mint city of Limyra, are positioned to the lower left and right of the lyre within the incuse field. The overall composition is strongly geometric, confined within the square incuse punch that is a hallmark of this federal coinage series. |
