| Beschrijving voorzijde | Draped bust of Antiochos I Theos facing right, portrayed with pronounced features in the Hellenistic royal tradition. The king wears the distinctive tiara associated with Tigranes II of Armenia, a tall cylindrical headdress adorned with ornamental decoration, reflecting the hybrid Graeco-Iranian court culture of Commagene. The portrait is rendered in a bold, slightly archaic style typical of eastern Hellenistic bronze coinage of the first century BC. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | A lion advancing to the right, rendered in a sturdy, naturalistic style with the body in profile and the tail raised. The animal stands on a ground line, occupying the central field of the flan. The royal Greek legend is divided in two lines: ΒΑΣΙΛΕ[ΩΣ] above the lion and ΑΝΤΙΟΧ[ΟΥ] below, identifying the coin as an issue of King Antiochos, with portions of the inscription obscured by the irregular flan edge. The design evokes the traditional Seleucid and Near Eastern royal iconography of the lion as a symbol of regal power. |
