| Beschrijving keerzijde | A thyrsus — the ceremonial Dionysiac staff topped with a pine cone — depicted horizontally across the centre of the flan, dividing the legend into upper and lower registers. The staff is rendered with a serrated or leafed shaft typical of Hellenistic civic bronze coinage. The Greek civic legend surrounds the device, identifying the issuing city and its privileged status as sacred and inviolable, with the Seleucid civic era date interspersed within the legend fields. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Apamea ad Orontem — situated on a plateau above the Orontes River in northern Syria — was one of the great Seleucid foundations, planted by Seleucus I and named for his Bactrian wife. By the time these bronzes were struck, the city had passed into Roman hands following Pompey's reorganization of the east in 64 BC. The dating of this issue to the decade after Actium places it squarely in the transitional period when civic mints across Syria were recalibrating their output to the new Augustan order.
