| Reverse description | The reverse type of this Cilician satrapal stater struck under Datames at Tarsus typically depicts a helmeted male head or a seated deity, accompanied by Aramaic inscriptions identifying the issuing authority. The design reflects the hybrid Greek-Persian artistic tradition prevalent in Cilician coinage of the early fourth century BC, with finely engraved features and a beaded border framing the composition. |
