| Beschrijving keerzijde | Standing nude male figure, identified as Zeus, depicted frontally in a commanding pose with both arms outstretched, each hand grasping a large serpent whose coils wind downward and across the lower field. The figure stands atop a third serpent, emphasizing dominion over chthonic forces. The Greek legend ΚΥΔΑΣ is inscribed above the figure in the upper field, with ΚΡΗΤΑΡΧΑΣ arranged vertically to the left and ΚΡΗΤΑΙΕΩΝ along the lower exergual area, identifying the issuing magistrate Kydas as Kretarchas and the ethnic of the Cretans. The composition reflects the Hellenistic tradition of portraying divine power through serpent-wrestling imagery, likely conflating Zeus with a heroic or chthonic deity venerated in Crete. |
