Beschrijving voorzijde Draped bust of the youthful Demos facing right, rendered in a provincial Hellenistic style. The figure displays a bare-shouldered or lightly draped treatment typical of civic personification busts from the Conventus of Apamea. The circular legend ΑΛΙΗΝΩΝ runs along the periphery, identifying the civic issuer. The flan is irregular and the relief low, consistent with small provincial bronze coinage of the Antonine period.

Beschrijving keerzijde Telesphorus, the god of convalescence and companion of Asclepius, depicted standing facing in his characteristic hooded cloak, rendered as a small stocky figure with the garment fully enveloping the body. The inscription ΑΓΡΕΥϹ ΑΝΕΘΗΚΕΝ encircles the figure in the field, recording a dedicatory formula indicating the coin was dedicated or commissioned by an individual named Agreus. The composition is typical of provincial civic bronzes of the Antonine era in Phrygia.

Aanvullende informatie

The dedicatory inscription ΑΓΡΕΥϹ ΑΝΕΘΗΚΕΝ identifies this piece as a civic dedication by an individual named Agreus — a private citizen, magistrate, or local benefactor who funded the issue as an act of public munificence, a practice well-documented across the cities of the Apamean conventus under the Antonine administration. Alia was a minor Phrygian settlement, and its bronze issues under Antoninus Pius are rare precisely because the town's limited civic infrastructure meant few such dedications were undertaken.
