| Reverse description | A lion recumbent to the right, with its head turned slightly and rendered with careful anatomical detail including a pronounced mane, muscular forequarters, and extended forepaws resting on a ground line. Below the ground line, the partial ethnic inscription ΠΑΝΤΙ appears in bold Greek characters, referencing the mint city of Panticapaeum. The composition is compact and well-centered within the irregular flan, consistent with the artistic conventions of Bosporan coinage of the late 4th century BC. |
