| Beschrijving keerzijde | The ethnic inscription of the issuing community arranged in multiple lines within a laurel wreath, the wreath tied at the base. The reverse type is purely epigraphic, asserting the civic identity of the Upper Cilbianites without figural imagery. The wreath border is typical of civic bronze coinage from the Conventus of Ephesus during the Severan period. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Cilbiani Superiores were a small Lydian community in the Cayster River valley whose civic coinage under Septimius Severus reflects the intense local competition for imperial favor during the civil wars of 193 AD — a year that saw four emperors and required provincial cities to pick their allegiances quickly and publicly. Bronze issues naming Severus were, in part, a loyalty declaration struck in metal.
The upper Cilbiani are distinguished from their neighbors, the Cilbiani Inferiores, by the ΑΝΩΝ ethnic — a distinction the two communities maintained carefully in their coinage to preserve separate civic identities within the Ephesian conventus.
