| Beschrijving voorzijde | Head of Athena facing right, wearing a Corinthian helmet pushed back on the head and adorned with a crest and cheek guards. The goddess is depicted with finely engraved facial features, including large almond-shaped eyes, a straight nose, and slightly parted lips, reflecting the refined Hellenistic style of the Pamphylian mint. Loose curls of hair emerge from beneath the helmet, framing the face and falling onto the neck. The portrait is rendered in high relief against a smooth, unadorned field. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Side was one of the most commercially active ports on the Pamphylian coast, and its tetradrachms circulated widely across the eastern Mediterranean trade networks from the late Hellenistic period onward. The city maintained unusual monetary independence for a non-royal issuer during this stretch, continuing to strike on the Attic standard while many neighbors deferred to Seleucid or later Ptolemaic weight conventions. Hoard evidence places these coins as far afield as Syria and Egypt, reflecting Side's role as a hub for grain, slaves, and pirate-brokered goods — the latter a trade the city was repeatedly accused of facilitating well into the first century BC.
