Beschrijving keerzijde A calathus (wicker basket) depicted centrally on the reverse, flanked by two upright poppy heads and two ears of grain rising from within, symbolising the agricultural fertility cults associated with Elaea and the goddess Demeter. The ethnic legend of the issuing city is distributed in the field around the central device. The composition is rendered in a compact, stylised manner typical of late first-century Pergamene conventus bronze coinage.

Aanvullende informatie

Elaea, a small coastal city in Aeolis, served as the main port for Pergamum and derived most of its economic significance from that function rather than from any independent political weight. Under Domitian, provincial bronze issues of this scale were authorized locally and circulated within the immediate region — unlikely to travel far from the city that struck them. The city's ethnonym ΕΛΑΙΤΩΝ confirms the issuing authority without appeal to Roman titulature, a choice reflecting the degree of autonomy still exercised by Pergamene conventus cities in managing small-denomination civic coinage.
