| Reverse description | Apollo Delphios standing left in the nude, holding an arrow downward in his extended right hand and leaning with his left elbow upon a tall tripod surmounted by a laurel wreath. The god's pose is relaxed and classical, echoing the dynastic cult imagery established under Seleukos I. The royal legend ΒΑΣΙΛΕΩΣ to the right and ΣΕΛΕΥΚΟΥ to the left flank the central figure, with control monograms placed in the outer left and right fields identifying the Nisibis mint authority. |
