| Reverse description | Two crossed thyrsos staffs or torches arranged diagonally in saltire across the central field, evoking Dionysiac symbolism consistent with the city's divine patronage. Above the crossed implements appears the partial legend ΔΙΟΝ in Greek majuscules, representing an abbreviated form of the city name Dionysopolis. The devices are rendered in a bold, simplified style characteristic of small Hellenistic civic bronze coinage. |
