| Reverse description | Depiction of the sacred fire temple of Ahura-Mazda, rendered as an architectural structure occupying the lower portion of the field, from which a flame rises. Above the temple, a half-figure of Ahura-Mazda emerges in the Achaemenid tradition. To the left, the king stands in profile facing right, being crowned by a winged Nike who stands behind him and extends a wreath or diadem over his head. A standard or sceptre is visible to the inner right of the composition. An Aramaic inscription appears in the field. |
