Stater - Kuprilli

正面描述	A lion depicted in a dynamic crouching or prowling posture, moving to the right, rendered in bold archaic relief. The animal is shown with muscular forequarters pressed low, tail raised and curling over the back, conveying vigorous movement. The naturalistic yet stylized treatment of the mane and body is characteristic of early Lycian coinage of the fifth century BC. The design fills the broad, irregularly shaped flan with no border or legend. The surface shows the typical granular texture of archaic hammered silver.

背面描述	A triskeles symbol — three curved legs or arms radiating from a central point — depicted in high incuse relief within a square incuse punch divided by a vertical line into two rectangular compartments, each with a dotted inner border. The triskeles, a device closely associated with Lycian dynastic coinage of the Kuprilli series, is boldly rendered and dominates the incuse field. The divided incuse square is a hallmark of early Lycian staters of this period. No legend or inscription is present. The hammered technique imparts a characteristic uneven depth to the incuse depression.
