| Beschrijving keerzijde | A boar advancing to the right, transfixed by a diagonal spear that pierces its body, rendered in a vigorous provincial style. The animal is depicted with characteristic bristled back and upturned tusks, occupying the central field of the flan. The Greek civic ethnic legend ΕΦΕϹΙΩΝ appears in the lower field or exergual area beneath the boar type, referencing the city of Ephesus. This boar-and-spear motif is a well-attested reverse type on Ephesian civic bronzes of the Severan period, likely evoking local mythological or hunting traditions. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Ephesus retained the right to strike bronze civic coinage under Septimius Severus partly because of its administrative importance as the seat of the conventus juridicus — the Roman judicial circuit that made it, functionally, the capital of the Asian province. Local bronze of this period circulated almost entirely within the city and its immediate hinterland, never competing with imperial silver.
