| Obverse description | Bearded male head facing right, rendered in archaic Greek style with characteristic curly hair and robust facial features. The portrait, likely representing the satrap Tissaphernes or a local deity, displays the naturalistic yet stylized workmanship typical of late 5th-century BCE Asia Minor coinage. The flan is irregular and slightly beveled at the edges, consistent with hammered silver coinage of the period. |
