| Reverse description | Full-length standing figure of Zeus Syrgastes, facing left, rendered in the conventional divine type. The deity holds a patera in his extended right hand and a long sceptre in his left, attributes emblematic of his sovereignty and cultic function within the local Tian religious tradition. The Greek ethnic legend ΖΕΥΣ ΤΕΙΑΝΩΝ is distributed in the field around the figure. The reverse type reflects the civic pride of Tium in promoting its local cult of Zeus on imperial coinage. |
