| 裏面の説明 | Standing figure, likely a deity — possibly Fortuna or a local divinity — depicted facing left or in three-quarter view, rendered in flowing drapery with attributes visible in the right hand, possibly a rudder or cornucopia, consistent with reverses known for the metropolis of Tomis during the Antonine period. The field to the left shows traces of a secondary object or symbol, partially obscured by wear and corrosion. The encircling legend ΤΟΜΙΤΩΝ ΜΗΤΡΟΠ, identifying the issuing city of Tomis as a metropolis, runs around the periphery. The overall composition follows standard provincial bronze iconography of the Black Sea littoral region. The green patina and flan irregularity are characteristic of coinage struck at Tomis under Antoninus Pius. |

Tomis, on the Black Sea coast of Moesia Inferior, was elevated to metropolis of that province sometime in the 2nd century — a status this coin's reverse legend explicitly advertises. The designation carried administrative weight, not merely prestige, entitling the city to preside over the provincial koinon and host its assemblies. Ovid died there in exile roughly a century before these bronzes were struck, still petitioning Augustus's successors for recall.
