Commentary
Au droit, la scène semble s’animer grâce à la précision de la prise. Au revers le grènetis ne prend plus la forme d’un carré linéaire, mais épouse la forme du flan.
On the obverse, the scene seems to come alive thanks to the precision of the grip. On the reverse, the graining no longer takes the form of a linear square, but follows the shape of the flan.

Historical background
PAMPHYLIA - ASPENDOS
(5th - 4th century BC)
Aspendos, located 12 kilometers from the top of the Eurymedon, was a great economic place and had a large port on the coast. Aspendos remained loyal to the Persians until the arrival of Alexander the Great and resisted him before being taken in 333 BC. Aspendos belonged to the kingdom of Pergamum between 189 and 133 BC.
