| Beschrijving voorzijde | Standing figure of Athena Parthenos in left profile, draped and helmeted, bearing a round shield on her left arm and a long spear in her left hand while extending her right hand forward. A winged Nike flies rightward at upper left, moving to crown Athena with a wreath. A pomegranate appears in the upper field, serving as a civic symbol of Side. The Pamphylian letter resembling psi (p) is visible to the right of the principal figure, functioning as a mint or magistrate mark. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Side was a prosperous Greek colonial city on the Pamphylian coast of Asia Minor, and its coinage in this period reflects an unusual degree of civic independence for a city nominally under Persian suzerainty. The double siglos denomination — aligning with the Persian weight standard while serving Greek commercial needs — was a pragmatic accommodation to a region where both economic spheres overlapped daily.
The city fell to Alexander in 333 BC without significant resistance, effectively ending this series. Atlan's corpus remains the definitive reference, though the "cf." qualification here suggests this specific die pairing sits outside his precisely documented examples.
