| Reverse description | A large triskeles, depicted as three interlocked running legs radiating from a central boss, occupies the field within a dotted square border, itself set within a recessed incuse square. The triskeles is boldly modelled in relief against the sunken incuse background, a hallmark of early fifth-century Lycian dynastic coinage. A partial Lycian inscription, tentatively read as KO, appears in the field to the right of the symbol, attributing the issue to the dynast Kuprilli. The overall composition is deeply cut and well-centred within the incuse depression. |
