| Beschrijving keerzijde | A griffin standing to the right, its left forepaw raised and resting upon a wheel, a civic emblem closely associated with Smyrna. The griffin, a sacred creature of Apollo, is rendered in a bold, naturalistic style typical of Ionian provincial bronzes of the Antonine period. The dedicatory inscription of the magistrate Theudioanos appears in the field surrounding the type. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The dedicatory inscription naming Theudianus as the dedicant identifies this as a civic issue funded — or at least formally dedicated — by a local benefactor, a common arrangement in Smyrna where wealthy citizens competed for the honor of sponsoring coinage as a form of public munificence. Smyrna held the prestigious title of twice-neokoros under Antoninus Pius, a distinction granted for maintaining imperial cult temples, and civic bronzes from this period reflect the city's aggressive cultivation of its relationship with Rome.
