| Reverse description | An eagle standing to the left, wings partially spread, holding a caduceus in its talons; the bird is depicted on an uncertain object, possibly an altar or base. The design occupies the central field, encircled by a Greek legend distributed around the periphery referencing the local magistrates Silvanus and Justus of the Vipsanii, and the ethnic of Amorium. The style is typical of Phrygian provincial bronze coinage under Caligula, with a somewhat crude but expressive rendering of the eagle motif. |
