| Reverse description | A filleted thyrsus — the staff of Dionysos, adorned with a fillet or ribbon — is depicted centrally, oriented horizontally across the field, dividing the reverse into upper and lower registers. The Greek legend naming the local magistrate and civic ethnikon is distributed across the field in four lines, with ΤΡΑΠΕΖΟΠΟΛΙΤΩΝ occupying the upper portion and ΑΝΔΡΟΝΙΚΟΣ ΓΟΡΓΙΠΠΟΥ the lower, consistent with the eponymous magistrate coinage convention of Carian civic issues under Augustus. |
