| Reverse description | Portrait bust of the Persian satrap Tiribazos in right profile, depicted bearded and mustachioed, wearing a kyrbasia (the characteristic soft Persian tiara) bound with a taenia or royal diadem. The rendering of the facial features is individualistic and portraiture-like, consistent with the satrap coinage tradition of the Achaemenid period. The single Greek letter appears in the field. The design is contained within a beaded border. |
