Reverse description A lion attacking a bull, rendered in vigorous high relief: the lion, its mane elaborately detailed, leaps upon the back of the prostrate bull from the right, biting into its neck while raking with its claws. Below this predatory group appears a detailed representation of a crenellated city wall with towers, symbolising the city of Tarsus. A palm branch is visible to the lower left of the field. The entire composition is enclosed within a beaded border.
