Reverse description A lion passant or striding to the right, rendered with vigorous naturalism, its mane depicted in high relief with a characteristic dotted or pellet treatment forming a full, pronounced ruff around the head and neck. The muscular body shows incised ribbing on the torso and the limbs are extended in a dynamic walking pose. The Iberian legend in Levantine semi-syllabic script appears in the lower field or exergue beneath the lion. The composition is bold and well-centred, reflecting strong Punic and Hellenistic artistic influences common to Hispano-Iberian coinage of this period.
