Reverse description A fully open rose with petals spread in profile view, the civic emblem of Rhodes, occupying the central field. To the left of the rose, a crested Corinthian helmet faces right, serving as a control symbol. To the right of the rose, a thunderbolt is depicted as an additional control mark. The abbreviated ethnic legend P-O flanks the rose, referencing the issuing city of Rhodos. The composition is typical of Rhodian bronze emergency coinage struck during the First Mithridatic War.
