Reverse description Laureate head of Heracles facing right, with the Nemean lion skin knotted around the neck, the paws visible at the shoulder — a standard Heraclean attribute. The portrayal is robust and bearded, consistent with the classical iconographic tradition of the hero-god venerated at Sardis. The magistrate's name and title appear in the field and around the periphery in Greek letters, identifying the strategos responsible for the issue. The reverse flan shares the same irregular fabric as the obverse.
