| Beschrijving keerzijde | A pair of balancing scales (a weighing balance or libra) depicted centrally within a dotted border, symbolising justice or the civic role of the local magistrate Artas. The scales are rendered schematically, with the beam and suspended pans visible. The two-line Greek legend ΑΡΤΑΣ ΚΤΙΣΤΗΣ, identifying Artas as the founder (ktistes) of Prymnessus, is inscribed below the scales across the field. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Prymnessus was a minor Phrygian city whose civic coinage under Tiberius is notable chiefly for its invocation of a founding figure — ΑΡΤΑΣ ΚΤΙΣΤΗΣ, "Artas the Founder" — a local hero otherwise unattested in surviving literary sources. The city fell within the conventus of Synnada, one of the judicial districts Rome used to administer Asia, and its bronze issues circulated in a region where Greek civic identity was maintained largely through exactly this kind of honorific numismatic assertion.
