| Obverse description | Persian king or satrap rendered in the Achaemenid royal tradition, wearing the kidaris (tiara) and kandys (court robe), depicted in a dynamic kneeling-running stance to the right. The figure holds a spear in the raised right hand and a bow in the left hand, evoking the standard Persian royal iconography. A Greek legend partially preserved as [Π]YΘAΓ-O-P-H[Σ], identifying the issuing authority as Pythagores, encircles the central design in the field. |
