| Reverse description | Helmeted bust of Athena facing left, wearing a crested Attic helmet, rendered in the classical Greek tradition befitting the city's Hellenistic heritage. The figure is depicted in bust form with visible drapery at the shoulder. A Greek legend surrounds the bust in the field, recording the ethnic of Amisus and the civic year of issue. The overall style reflects the continuation of autonomous Greek civic coinage iconography under Roman provincial administration. |
