| Reverse description | Poseidon shown standing facing, head turned to the left, nude but for a chlamys draped over his extended left arm, holding a small Nike in his outstretched right hand and a trident upright in his left. The Greek magistrate legend flanks the figure in two vertical columns in the field to right and left. The composition is typical of the civic bronze issues of Byzantion, with the deity rendered in a vigorous Hellenistic style. |
