| Reverse description | Stern of a galley depicted in right profile within an incuse square, the hull rendered with multiple parallel horizontal lines representing the strakes of the vessel's planking. The curved sternpost rises prominently above the hull, with the steering oar suggested beneath. The ethnic abbreviation ΦΑΣ appears in the upper field within the incuse, identifying the issuing city of Phaselis. The incuse is deeply struck, typical of the archaic hammered technique employed at Pamphylian and Lycian mints of this period. |
