| Beschrijving voorzijde | Standing figure of Baal depicted in three-quarter view facing left, holding an eagle in his raised right hand and a long scepter in his left hand. The Aramaic or Greek monogram ΣO appears to the left of the deity in the field. The deity is rendered in the hieratic style characteristic of Achaemenid-period Cilician coinage, with long robes and divine attributes emphasizing his sovereignty. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Half-length frontal bust of Ahura-Mazda emerging from a solar or winged disk, his body terminating in the lower portion of the disk in the manner of the Faravahar iconography. The deity holds a wreath in one hand and a lotus blossom in the other, symbols of divine authority and eternal life. The composition reflects the syncretic Achaemenid religious iconography prevalent in Cilician satrapal coinage of the late fifth and early fourth centuries BC. |

Tiribazus held an unusually complicated position in the Achaemenid hierarchy — appointed satrap of Lydia rather than Cilicia, he was twice removed from office and twice reinstated by Artaxerxes II, a volatility that makes his coin-issuing authority itself historically irregular. This stater belongs to a series struck in Cilicia during his tenure as a military commander in the region, connected to his role organizing Persian naval operations against Evagoras of Cyprus in the late 380s. The SNG Levante 49 classification places it within a tightly defined die group from that campaign period.
