| Reverse description | Bearded male head facing right, identified as the Lycian dynast Kherei, wearing a Persian kyrbasia (soft pointed cap), rendered in high relief within a square incuse. A Lycian inscription is disposed around the portrait within the incuse square, identifying the dynast. The style reflects the blending of Greek and Achaemenid artistic influences characteristic of Lycian dynastic coinage of the late fifth century BC. |
