CILICIA, Mallos. Autophradates(?). Circa 380-333 BC. AR Stater (10.04 g, 9h). Head of Herakles right, wearing lion's skin around neck / Head of satrap right, wearing Persian headdress. SNG Levante 153; SNG France 395; cf. Winzer 10.4 (Tiribazos). EF, slight weakness at high points. ($750)
Winzer's attribution to this satrap is based on the this coin's portrait to others stylistically similar bearing Tirabazos' name. It is also quite possible the satrapal portrait is that of Autophradates, Tiribazos' successor.
