| Beschrijving voorzijde | Baaltars, the supreme deity of Tarsus, enthroned facing left on a backless throne, his torso turned frontally in the Archaic convention. In his raised right hand he holds an eagle, a grain ear, and a vine branch bearing a bunch of grapes, emblems of divine authority and fertility; his left hand grasps a tall scepter. In the lower left field, the Aramaic inscription MR (meaning 'lord') appears, while to the right the theophoric name B'LTRZ (Baaltars) is inscribed in Aramaic characters, anchoring the divine identity of the enthroned figure. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | A powerful lion, rendered in high relief with a finely detailed mane, attacks a bull from above, both animals shown moving to the left in a dynamic predator-prey composition characteristic of Achaemenid-era Cilician coinage. The bull falls to its knees beneath the lion's weight, its head turned toward the viewer in submission. Above the scene, the Aramaic legend MZDY identifies the issuing satrap Mazaios, while the inscription SM appears below, likely denoting an official or mint authority. The scene is set within a shallow incuse square, the whole composition conveying vigorous artistic energy typical of the Tarsian mint under Mazaios. |
