| Beschrijving keerzijde | A hexastyle temple facade rendered in frontal view, with six clearly delineated columns supporting a triangular pediment, within which a central pellet is visible as a decorative or cultic motif. The entablature and stepped stylobate are depicted, giving the design architectural precision typical of Bithynian civic temple types. The Greek ethnic legend ΠΡΟΥϹΑΕΩΝ is distributed around the temple, with letters flanking the structure on either side and the remainder below, identifying the issuing city of Prusa ad Olympum. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Prusa ad Olympum sat at the foot of Mount Olympus in Bithynia, a city that had been a minor but persistent issuing authority under the Severan dynasty. Septimius Severus secured the throne after the chaotic Year of the Five Emperors in 193 AD, and provincial mints across Asia Minor quickly aligned their output to acknowledge the new regime — this small bronze almost certainly belongs to that early wave of civic loyalty coinage.
The V.2 reference places this within Waddington, Babelon, and Reinach's *Recueil général* corpus, a classification system with known gaps in Bithynian material.
