| Reverse description | Apollo standing facing, with head turned to the left, holding an arrow upright in his extended right hand while his left arm rests upon a grounded bow at his side. The god is depicted in the idealised Hellenistic style, nude or lightly draped, conveying the divine serenity associated with his cult. The royal legend is disposed in two lines within the field, identifying the issuing monarch. The composition is characteristic of the Apameia on the Axios mint issues under Antiochos VI. |
