| Reverse description | Herakles seated left on a square, anvil-shaped rock or throne, his nude muscular body rendered in the Hellenistic tradition. He holds a club upright with his right hand, resting it vertically on his right knee, while his left arm rests at his side. The Greek royal legend appears in two vertical columns flanking the figure, a monogram is placed before his head in the upper left field, and a regnal date appears in the exergue. |
