| Beschrijving voorzijde | Turreted and draped bust of Roma facing right, wearing a mural crown adorned with radiating spikes, her hair elaborately coiffed and swept back. The drapery falls across the truncation of the shoulder in the provincial Greek style typical of the Antonine period. The encircling Greek legend ΕΡΜΟΚΑΠΗΛΙΤΩΝ arcs around the periphery of the flan, identifying the issuing civic community of Hermocapelia. The portrait is rendered in low relief with fine engraving of the facial features, consistent with the die-cutting conventions of the Pergamene conventus workshops. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Hermocapelia was a small Lydian city whose civic coinage was issued under Roman provincial authority, subject to the conventions of the Pergamene assize. The legend ΙΕΡΑ ϹΥΝΚΛΗΤΟϹ — "Sacred Senate" — indicates this piece was struck in honor of the Roman Senate, a common honorific practice among minor Asian cities seeking to signal loyalty and, not incidentally, maintain favorable relations with Rome during a period when civic minting rights could be revoked.
BMC Greek 7 places this among the earliest attributable bronzes from the city.
