| Reverse description | A seven-stringed lyre depicted frontally in the center of the field, its crossbar and resonating body clearly articulated in low relief. The Greek civic legend ΑΝΤΙΟΧΕΩΝ encircles the design, with the regnal date ΕΤ ΗΡ (year 108 of the Caesarean era, corresponding to 59–60 AD) completing the inscription. The lyre is a direct iconographic reference to Apollo, whose image appears on the obverse, and is a hallmark type of Neronian-era Antiochene civic bronze coinage. |
