| Obverse lettering | ΑΥ ΚΑΙ ΤΡΑ ΑΔΡΙΑΝΟϹ |
| Reverse description | Standing figure of Demeter facing left, rendered in provincial Greek style, holding a bundle of ears of grain in her extended right hand and resting her left hand upon a tall lighted torch. The goddess is depicted in long flowing robes, with the torch serving as a symbol of her role in the Eleusinian mysteries. The ethnic legend ΛΑΕΡΤΕΙΤωΝ is disposed around the reverse field, identifying the issuing civic authority of Laertes. The composition is characteristic of Hellenistic-influenced civic bronze coinage from the Cilician region. |
