| Reverse description | Tyche, the personification of Fortune, stands facing left in full figure, rendered in the conventional Hellenistic manner. She holds a ship's rudder in her right hand, symbolising guidance and destiny, and a cornucopia in her left, representing abundance. The encircling Greek legend names the issuing civic authority. The flan surface shows typical patination and wear consistent with a circulated provincial bronze of the mid-third century AD. |
