| Reverse description | Hermes, the patron deity of commerce and patron god of Hermocapelia, depicted standing to the left in full figure, wearing chlamys and petasos. In his outstretched right hand he holds a money purse (marsupium), emblematic of trade and prosperity, while his left hand grasps a caduceus, the herald's wand entwined with serpents. The ethnic legend of the issuing civic community is inscribed around the field, and the composition is framed by a dotted border. |
