| Reverse description | A single upright laurel branch occupying the central field, rendered with finely engraved paired leaflets along a central stem, tapering toward the apex. The laurel branch, a symbol of victory and imperial favor, fills the flan in a bold, centered composition typical of Phrygian civic coinage. The ethnic legend ΙΕΡΑΠΟΛΕΙΤΩΝ and the magistrate's name ΔΙΦΙΛΟΣ are inscribed in the field flanking the branch. The surface exhibits a dark olive-green patina with encrustation consistent with long burial. |
