| Beschrijving keerzijde | Colonial abbreviation C I C (Colonia Iulia Cnossus) inscribed within a laurel wreath, the branches tied at the base. The wreath serves as the primary decorative frame enclosing the civic legend, a design convention common to Roman colonial bronze coinage of the early Imperial period. The flan is irregular and the relief is worn, but the wreath border and central lettering remain partially legible. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Cnossus — refounded as a Roman colony under Julius Caesar and later Augustus — was one of the few Cretan cities granted the right to strike its own bronze coinage under the early empire. Issues from this mint are small-module, low-denomination pieces that circulated locally rather than provincially, which accounts for the frequency with which they appear heavily worn. The duoviri whose abbreviated names appear on these coins held the senior magistracy of the colony, making this issue an administrative record as much as a monetary one.
