| Reverse description | Zeus enthroned to the left, his upper body nude, holding a long sceptre vertically in his left hand and extending a small eagle in his right. The god is seated on a high-backed throne, his legs draped in himation, recalling the canonical Pheidian type widely employed on Hellenistic and early Roman provincial coinage. The Greek legend ΣΩΣΘΕΝΗΣ ΑΓΝΟΣ ΣΕΒΑΣΤΗΝΩΝ, naming the civic magistrate Sosthenes and the citizens of Sebaste, runs in the right field and along the periphery, partially visible on the worn flan. |
