| Beschrijving keerzijde | Artemis Phosphoros, the light-bearing aspect of the goddess, depicted advancing to the right, her figure rendered in the dynamic style characteristic of Mysian provincial coinage. She holds a lighted torch in each raised hand, symbolising her role as bringer of light. The colonial abbreviation in the field identifies the issuing authority as the Colonia Gemella Iulia Hadriana Pariana. The die work, though worn, reflects the Hellenistic artistic tradition maintained at Parium under Roman imperial rule. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Parium, a Roman colony on the Propontis with roots stretching back to Greek settlement, retained its colonial minting rights well into the Severan period. Under Severus Alexander, the city issued a modest bronze series — this among the smallest modules — likely serving local transactional needs at a time when the emperor was attempting fiscal retrenchment after the excesses of Elagabalus.
The colonial abbreviation C G I H PA renders Colonia Gemella Iulia Hadriana Pariana, the honorific titles accumulated across generations of imperial favor.
