| Beschrijving voorzijde | Two nude male athletes engaged in a wrestling contest, facing one another in a symmetrical composition, each leaning forward with arms grappling at center. The figures stand on a ground line, rendered in vigorous relief with naturalistic musculature characteristic of late Classical Greek coinage. A retrograde epsilon or city monogram appears in the lower field between the wrestlers' legs. The entire design is enclosed within a border of beads. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | A beardless male figure, depicted nude and striding vigorously to the right, with left arm extended forward and right hand brandishing a curved blade or harpe. A triskeles symbol is placed in the field before him, serving as a civic or dynastic emblem. The composition is rendered in bold hammered relief, consistent with the regional coinage of Pisidian Etenna. The ethnic legend ETENNEΩN is inscribed around the figure in Greek characters. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Etenna was a small Pisidian city in the Taurus mountain region of southern Anatolia, and its coinage reflects the fierce independence these highland communities maintained against successive Achaemenid, Macedonian, and eventually Seleucid pressures. The city struck relatively few coins, and the stater series from this period is genuinely scarce — Etenna never developed the prolific mint output of its coastal neighbors.
The GCV 5456 reference places this among a tightly defined group. Die studies by scholars of Pisidian coinage have confirmed limited die pairs for the entire series, meaning total production was modest by any measure.
