| Reverse description | Helmeted bust of Athena facing right, wearing the aegis adorned with serpents and the gorgoneion, rendered in the characteristic provincial style of Heraclea Pontica. The goddess is depicted with a crested Corinthian helmet, the aegis clearly delineated across the chest. The circular Greek legend naming the city of issue runs along the periphery of the flan, which displays the typical dark patina and irregular edge of a hammered provincial bronze. |
