| Beschrijving keerzijde | The river god Astraios, the eponymous deity of the local river, is depicted reclining to the left in the traditional Hellenistic manner for personified waterways. He holds a reed in one hand and a cornucopia in the other, symbolic of fertility and abundance, while resting his elbow upon an overturned water urn from which the river's waters flow. The encircling ethnic legend identifies the issuing civic authority of Metropolis in Ionia. |
