| Reverse description | Asclepius, the god of medicine, depicted standing facing with head turned to the left, clad in a himation draped over the lower body and left shoulder. He holds his iconic serpent-entwined staff (the kerykeion of Asclepius) in his right hand, with the serpent coiling prominently around the shaft. The ethnic legend ΑΚΡΑϹΙΩΤΩΝ curves around the field, identifying the issuing city of Acrasus. The type reflects the strong association between the cities of the Pergamene conventus and healing deities. |
