| Reverse description | Apollo standing in three-quarter pose facing left, depicted nude in the Hellenistic tradition, holding an arrow in his extended right hand and resting his left arm upon a tall tripod altar. The Greek royal legend flanks the figure, with the letter Λ in the outer left field and Δ in the inner left field serving as mint or control marks. The composition is characteristic of Seleucid bronze issues struck at Antioch, with the god rendered in a dynamic yet balanced stance. |
