| Reverse description | Apollo seated left upon an omphalos or throne, extending his right hand forward over a tripod to offer a laurel branch, while his left arm rests on a kithara placed at his side. The composition follows established Hellenistic types for Apollo as god of music and prophecy. The Greek royal legend BAΣIΛEΩΣ BAΣIΛEΩN MEΓAΛOY ΦAPNAKOY (of the Great King of Kings Pharnakes) is distributed in the field and around the figure, accompanied by the monogram EMΣ and an additional control monogram behind the deity. |
