| Reverse description | Harpocrates depicted nude, standing to the left, raising his right index finger to his lips in the traditional gesture of silence and mystery. In his left arm he cradles a cornucopia, symbolising abundance and divine favour. The figure is rendered in the characteristic provincial style of Pontic bronze coinage, with the legend ΗΡΑΚΛΗΑϹ ΕΝ ΠΟΝΤΩ distributed around the field, identifying the issuing city of Heraclea in Pontus. |
