| Beschrijving keerzijde | Cybele, turreted and draped, seated on a throne facing left, extending her right hand to hold a patera and resting her left arm upon a tympanum placed beside her on the throne. The composition is a standard iconographic type for the Magna Mater as venerated in Lydia, with the drum serving as her primary cultic attribute. The magistrate's legend encircles the figure in the field, referencing the eponymous local official responsible for the coinage. The style is characteristic of the provincial bronze coinage of the Sardis conventus under Antoninus Pius. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Sala was a minor Lydian city in the conventus of Sardis whose civic coinage under Antoninus Pius is distinguished almost entirely by its magistrate series. The name ΑΝΔΡΟΝΕΙΚΟΣ appearing in the obverse legend identifies the sitting grammateus or civic official responsible for authorizing the issue — a practice common in Asia Minor whereby local magistrates essentially underwrote bronze production as a civic duty, sometimes at personal financial cost.
The abbreviation ϹΑΛ confirms the Sala attribution, a city whose output was modest enough that individual magistrate issues remain individually traceable in the surviving record.
