To the left of the eagle, a Cypriot syllabic inscription is arranged vertically in two columns, reading pa-si sa-ta-sa, identifying the issuing king Stasandros of Paphos. A small oinochoe (jug) appears in the lower left field. The beaded border frames the entire incuse compartment.

Aanvullende informatie

Paphos was among the Cypriot kingdoms that navigated an extraordinarily precarious position during the mid-fifth century BC, nominally subject to Achaemenid Persian authority while culturally and commercially entangled with the Greek world. Stasandros ruled during precisely this tension, when Cyprus served as a recurring flashpoint between Persian ambition and Athenian expansion — the Delian League's campaigns in the eastern Mediterranean brought Athenian warships within reach of Cypriot waters more than once during this window.

The kingdom of Paphos produced a relatively small corpus of silver coinage, and Stasandros issues are among the rarer royal attributions from the island. The Tziambazis and SilCoinCy references document only a handful of die pairings across collections.
