| Obverse description | Amphora shown in full front view, its body tapering to a pointed base, with two upward-arching handles; an ivy leaf pendant from the left handle occupies the lower left field. The design is rendered in low relief against a plain field, with the coin's irregular flan bordered by a faint beaded border visible on portions of the edge. |

| Additional information |
Nagidos was a small Cilician coastal settlement whose mint operated during a window of Achaemenid-era autonomy, striking small silver fractions for local commerce before the region was absorbed into tighter Persian administrative control. The "var." designation against SNG France 19 suggests a die pairing not precisely replicated in the reference corpus — not unusual for a mint producing at this scale, where individual engravers worked without the die standardization of larger civic mints.
