| Reverse description | A square or rectangular altar depicted in three-quarter perspective, centrally placed in the field, consistent with civic and religious imagery common to Gazan coinage of the Augustan period. The altar type references the prominent cult site at Gaza and serves as a civic emblem. The Greek letters Gamma (Γ) and Alpha (Α) appear divided to either side of the altar as a control mark or date indicator. The overall design is characteristic of the autonomous civic bronze issues struck at Gaza under Roman suzerainty. |
