| Reverse description | A Persian king or hero rendered in the Achaemenid court style stands facing right on the left side of the field, attired in the royal kidaris headdress and the kandys robe. He confronts a rearing lion standing on its hind legs, grasping the beast's head with his left hand while his raised right hand wields a dagger. The abbreviated Aramaic legend מז (interpreted as Mazday, the satrap Mazaeus) appears in the field between the figures. |
