Reverse description Cista mystica depicted centrally, shown as a wicker or wickerwork basket-chest with its lid partially raised, from which a serpent emerges and creeps to the right — an iconic Dionysiac and Mystic cult symbol closely associated with the Pergamene religious tradition. The cista rests on a plain ground line. The Greek civic legend identifying Pergamum's double neocorate status is distributed in the field to the left and right of the type.
