| Reverse description | Lion standing left in a dynamic striding posture, with right forepaw raised and head turned slightly forward, rendered with a prominently delineated mane. The animal stands upon a rocky ground line, conveying a sense of strength and vitality characteristic of Massalian civic coinage of the late Hellenistic period. Above the lion, the civic ethnic legend ΜΑΣΣΑ is inscribed in Greek letters across the upper field. A control letter or magistrate's mark appears in the exergue below the ground line, varying by emission (e.g., ΑΗ on this example). The design is enclosed within the irregular flan typical of hammered ancient coinage. |
