| Reverse description | A distyle temple façade with two columns enclosing a standing figure of Minerva (Athena), depicted facing left. The goddess holds a patera extended over an owl at her feet and grasps a long spear; a round shield leans against the spear at her side. The colonial mint legend is distributed around the field in abbreviated Latin. The reverse type underscores Patras's status as a Roman colony and its veneration of the Capitoline triad's patron deity of wisdom and warfare. |
