Reverse description The reverse depicts a togate founder-priest facing right, guiding a plough drawn by two yoked oxen, also advancing to the right — a classic ktistic type alluding to the Roman colonial foundation of Parium. The scene commemorates the ritual sulcus primigenius, the sacred furrow marking the city's boundaries. The colonial abbreviation legend C G I H P appears in the upper field, identifying the colony as Colonia Gemella Iulia Hadriana Pariana.
