Reverse description Standing male figure, identified as a local deity or personification, wearing a distinctive flat headdress, depicted in three-quarter stance. The figure holds a cornucopia in the right hand and a vine branch in the left hand, from which a deer stands to the right and feeds. A monogram MH appears in the inner right field. The composition is framed by the royal Greek legend and reflects strong Hellenistic iconographic conventions blended with local Anatolian religious imagery.
