| Reverse description | An eagle stands in right profile, perched upon a branch or palm frond, its wings partially spread and its body rendered with detailed feathering characteristic of Phrygian provincial bronzes. The Greek legend ΙΟΥΛΙΟΣ ΔΙΟΝΥΣΙΟΣ, naming the local magistrate (strategos) responsible for the issue, is distributed around the eagle within the field. The composition is typical of civic coinage struck under Nero in the Conventus of Apamea, where the eagle served as a symbol of Roman imperial authority. |
