Interesting fact
The obverse (front) side of the coin features a stag's head, which was a symbol of the city of Ephesos. The stag's head is depicted in a very naturalistic style, with detailed fur texture and a realistic expression. This level of detail and realism in coin engraving was quite advanced for the time period, and it showcases the skill of the ancient Greek engravers who created the coin.
