| Reverse description | A tripod with three legs and a flat top, surmounted by a laurel branch rising from the bowl, occupying the central field. The tripod is a sacred Apolline symbol closely associated with the cult practices of Hierapolis. The circular Greek legend ΑΤΤΑΛΟΣ ΜΕΙΛΙΧΙΟΣ ΙΕΡΑΠΟΛΕΙΤΩΝ surrounds the type, naming the local magistrate Attalos Meilichios and the civic ethnic of the Hierapoleitans. The overall composition is typical of Phrygian civic bronze coinage of the Augustan period. |
