背面描述	A laden grapevine occupies the central field, depicting a large hanging bunch of grapes suspended from a curling tendril flanked by broad vine leaves on either side. The ethnic legend ΣOΛEΩN appears to the left in the field, identifying the issuing city of Soloi, while an HP monogram is placed to the lower right, likely denoting a magistrate or civic authority. The design is rendered within an incuse square typical of hammered silver coinage of the period.

附加信息	Soloi was one of the most Hellenized cities in Cilicia, founded according to tradition by settlers from Rhodes and later from Lindos — a background that produced notably Greek-inflected coin types at a time when neighboring mints were still issuing heavily Persianized staters. The city's name, incidentally, gave the world the word "solecism," coined by Athenian writers who mocked the corrupted Greek dialect spoken there. The SNG Levante 55 attribution places this piece among a well-documented sequence, though die linkage studies by Casabonne have shown the series to be more complex than early references suggested.
