Reverse description Tyche, the personification of the city's fortune, depicted standing to the left in long draped garments. She holds a ship's rudder in her right hand and a cornucopia (horn of plenty) in her left arm, the standard civic iconography for Tyche on provincial bronzes of Asia Minor. The circular Greek legend naming the issuing city runs around the periphery of the field, with the notable epigraphic peculiarity of the letter Nu (Ν) rendered in the retrograde form resembling И.
