| Obverse description | The obverse depicts the prow of a war galley (trireme) facing right, rendered in fine relief with the characteristic oar-banks and ram clearly delineated. Above the prow, the forepart of a boar surges forward to the right, its muscular form executed in the bold Hellenistic style characteristic of Lycian civic coinage. The field is smooth and unlettered, with the design occupying the full flan in a dynamic, naturalistic composition typical of Phaselian staters of this period. |
