| 裏面の説明 | Nike advancing left, wearing a long chiton and rendered in full figure, her wings spread behind her. She holds a wreath aloft in her raised right hand and a palm branch in her lowered left hand, both emblematic of victory. The Greek civic legend ΑΠΑΜΕΩΝ ΤΗΣ ΙΕΡΑΣ ΚΑΙ ΑΥΤΟΝΟΜΟΥ is disposed around the field, with the date letters ΓΠΣ (year 283 of the Seleucid era, corresponding to 30 BC) inscribed in the right field. The composition is characteristic of the autonomous civic bronze coinage of Apamea on the Orontes. |

Apamea was one of the great Seleucid foundations on the Orontes, established by Seleucus I and named for his Bactrian wife. By 30 BC the city had passed firmly into the Roman provincial orbit following Octavian's defeat of Antony and Cleopatra, and local bronze issues like this one reflect the transitional moment when civic mints were reasserting their identity under a new master. The city's famous cavalry stud — which at its height reportedly maintained 30,000 mares for the Seleucid army — had long made Apamea strategically indispensable, a fact Roman administrators were careful not to forget.
