| Beschrijving voorzijde | Cult statue of Artemis Pergaia depicted facing, shown frontally in the characteristic xoanon style within a distyle or tetrastyle temple façade; the idol is rendered schematically, standing rigid between columns with a triangular pediment above, reflecting the archaic sacred image housed in the famous sanctuary at Perge. The architectural framing emphasizes the religious and civic importance of the cult. The coin surface exhibits an olive-green patina consistent with extended burial, with moderate flan irregularity typical of late Hellenistic provincial bronze coinage. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Draped bust of Artemis Pergaia to the right, wearing a stephane or diadem, with quiver visible over the shoulder, rendered in the Hellenistic tradition characteristic of Pamphylian civic coinage. The field is encircled by the Greek legend APTEMIΔOΣ ΠEPΓAIAΣ (of Artemis Pergaia), distributed around the periphery of the flan. The style is typical of late Hellenistic Asia Minor bronze issues, with moderate die wear and green-brown patination across the surface. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Perge's civic bronze issues of the late first century BC were struck under the shadow of Rome's escalating grip on Pamphylia — the region had been formally absorbed into the province of Cilicia decades earlier, yet cities like Perge retained the right to strike small bronze for local exchange. This autonomy was more administrative convenience than generosity; Rome had little interest in monopolizing low-value civic coinage that barely traveled beyond market stalls.
The ethnic legend referencing Artemis Pergaia reflects the city's deeply entrenched cult, which predated Greek colonization and persisted through Roman annexation without interruption.
