Reverse description A tall tripod cauldron set upon three legs occupies the center of the field, flanked on either side by a laurel branch, a symbol closely associated with Apollo and Augustan religious iconography. The composition is balanced and formal, reflecting civic pride in the local cult. The Greek magistrate's name and ethnic legend ΚΩΚΟΣ ΠΟΛΛΙΔΟΣ ΙΕΡΑΠΟΛΕΙΤΩΝ is distributed around the periphery of the reverse field, identifying the issuing magistrate Kokos son of Pollis and the city of Hierapolis.
