| Reverse description | Draped bust of Zeus Ammon facing right, distinguished by the characteristic ram's horn curling behind the ear and a solar disk atop the head, rendered in the syncretic Graeco-Egyptian tradition. The reverse legend naming the city of Bostra is placed around the bust in the field. The die work is typical of the provincial mint at Bostra during the Antonine period. |
