| Beschrijving keerzijde | Standing cult statue of Hera Samia facing left, depicted in the archaic xoanon style characteristic of this celebrated Samian type. The goddess is shown in a rigid, frontal posture with arms extended, consistent with the ancient wooden cult image housed in the Heraion of Samos. The reverse field is largely plain, with the ethnic legend ΣΑΜΙΩΝ inscribed to the right of the figure. A dotted border is visible along the coin's edge on the reverse. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Samos issued coins under its own civic authority throughout the imperial period, a privilege that survived repeated administrative reshufflings of the Aegean conventus system. Under Domitian, the island retained enough municipal prestige to strike in the emperor's name — though the relationship between Samos and Rome was never straightforward, the island having backed the wrong side more than once during the late Republican civil wars.
The Conventus of Miletus, to which Samos was assigned, processed legal and administrative business for a sprawling coastal and island district, and civic bronze issues like this one functioned almost exclusively in local exchange.
