| Reverse description | Helmeted bust of Athena facing right, depicted in the Hellenistic tradition with a crested helmet, rendered in moderate relief consistent with provincial bronze coinage of the Pontic region. The surrounding Greek legend reads ΑΜΙϹΟΥ ΕΛΕΥΘΕΡΑϹ ΕΤ ΡΚΘ, identifying the issuing city of Amisus as a free city and providing the civic era date ΡΚΘ (year 129), corresponding to 98 AD. The flan is notably irregular with some edge splits typical of hammered provincial bronzes. |
