| Reverse description | A lion passant to the right, depicted in a naturalistic yet stylized manner characteristic of Smyrnaean civic bronzes, striding across a ground line. The mane is rendered with fine detail visible despite moderate wear. The encircling Greek legend ϹΜΥΡΝΑΙΩΝ, reading 'of the Smyrnaeans,' occupies the periphery of the reverse field, asserting civic identity as was customary on provincial coinage of Ionia during the reign of Commodus. |
