| Reverse description | Four-line Greek inscription set within the field and enclosed by a laurel wreath tied at the base, the wreath rendered with carefully delineated leaves. The civic ethnic legend ΦΙΛΑΔΕΛΦΕΩΝ occupies the central area of the reverse, affirming the issuing authority of the city of Philadelphia in Lydia. The wreath border, a common device on provincial civic bronzes, lends the type a formal honorific character. |
