| Beschrijving keerzijde | Caduceus or kerykeion — a staff entwined by a serpent — depicted upright in the centre of the field, with a bunch of grapes suspended from or flanking the staff. The design fills the field vertically and is rendered in low relief characteristic of Pergamene civic bronze coinage. A circular Greek legend surrounds the central device, naming the strategos responsible for the issue. |

Kephalion served as strategos of Pergamum under Domitian, and his name on the coin reflects the Greek city's retention of local magistrate coinage well into the imperial period — a civic privilege Pergamum guarded carefully, having been the first city in Asia to receive permission to establish a cult of Rome, back in 29 BC. The strategos title here is not honorary; these magistrates held genuine administrative authority over the mint's output.
