| Reverse description | A winged caduceus depicted upright in the center of the field, with intertwined serpents rising along the staff and wings spreading symmetrically at the top. The civic legend of Miletopolis is distributed around the periphery, with the magistrate's abbreviated name divided on either side of the central device. The composition is typical of civic bronze coinage from the Conventus of Cyzicus under the Antonine period. |
