| 裏面の説明 | Within a recessed incuse square, a Persian king or royal hero is depicted in right-profile stance, actively engaged in combat with a rearing lion that rises on its hind legs before him. The king grasps the lion with one hand and delivers a downward thrust with the other, evoking the classical Achaemenid royal hunt iconography. The bold, deeply cut relief is typical of Phoenician engraving of the early fourth century BC. |

Ba'alshallim II ruled Sidon as a Persian vassal in the decades following the consolidation of Achaemenid control over Phoenicia, and his coinage reflects that uncomfortable duality — a local dynast asserting civic identity within the rigid framework of Persian imperial administration. The Sidonians retained minting rights largely because their fleet was indispensable to Persian naval operations; these coins are, in a practical sense, a byproduct of Sidon's value as a maritime power rather than any granted autonomy.
The sixteen-year attribution window is conventional rather than precise. Die-study work, particularly Betlyon's sequencing, allows rough internal ordering, but absolute dates remain tied to the broader dynastic chronology of Sidonian kings reconstructed partly from Phoenician inscriptions.
