| Beschrijving keerzijde | Turreted and draped bust of Tyche, the civic goddess of Bostra, facing right, depicted in the standard provincial manner with a mural crown (turreted headdress) atop her head and drapery over her shoulders. The design is enclosed within a beaded border, with the Greek civic legend distributed in the field around the bust identifying the city of Nea Traiana Bostra. The rendering is characteristic of the small-module bronzes struck at Bostra under Commodus. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Bostra served as the capital of the Roman province of Arabia Petraea after Trajan's annexation in 106 AD, and its civic bronze coinage under Commodus reflects the city's tight integration into the imperial system during a reign increasingly defined by Commodus's erratic self-deification. The city's coins bearing his titles were struck well before the Senate's damnatio memoriae wiped his name from official monuments following his murder in 192 — survivals carry an administrative reality that Rome itself tried to erase.
