| Reverse description | Male head facing left, wearing a royal diadem and a Persian kyrbasia or tiara, rendered with controlled relief typical of Cilician satrapal die-cutting. The portraiture combines Achaemenid regal attributes with Hellenising artistic conventions, suggesting an idealized representation of a Persian dignitary or the satrap himself. The field is plain and anepigraphic. The flan is irregularly shaped, consistent with hammered coinage of the period. |
