| Beschrijving voorzijde | Herakles striding to the right, depicted in heroic guise, grasping a club in his raised hand while carrying a bow and quiver; the Nemean lion skin is draped over his left arm. An ankh symbol appears in the right field, reflecting the strong Phoenician cultural influence at Kition. The style is consistent with Cypriot coinage of the fourth century BC, combining Greek iconographic conventions with Near Eastern religious symbolism. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Melekkiatam ruled Kition during a period when the city-kingdom was under sustained Phoenician dynastic control, and the gold coinage issued in his name reflects the mint's deliberate alignment with Phoenician rather than Greek monetary conventions. Hemistaters from this reign are rare by any measure — Kition's gold output was never prolific, and Tziambazis catalogued fewer than a handful of confirmed specimens for this type.
