| Reverse description | A stag advancing to the right occupies the central field, rendered in the typical provincial die-cutting style of the Lydian conventus. The animal is depicted in a naturalistic walking pose, serving as the civic emblem of Hypaepa. The ethnic legend of the issuing city encircles the type, identifying the coin as a civic bronze issue of the Hypaepan community. |

| Additional information |
Hypaepa was a mid-tier Lydian city with pretensions above its administrative station — it held the right to strike bronze under the Ephesian conventus, but its output was modest and its series relatively short. Issues under Septimius Severus from this mint tend to appear in small numbers in trade, suggesting limited original production rather than attrition through circulation loss.
