| Reverse description | The iconic cult statue of Artemis of Ephesus (Ephesia) depicted standing, facing, in the canonical xoanon pose with arms extended and supported by lateral supports or staves. The goddess wears the distinctive kalathos (polos) headdress atop her head and the characteristic multi-tiered arrangement of her torso. The reverse legend in Greek encircles the type, reading in the dative case as an ethnic designation of the issuing community of Anineta. The overall reverse composition follows well-established Ephesian regional iconographic conventions. |
