| Reverse description | A four-line Latin inscription occupying the central field, enclosed within a wreath of parsley (wild celery), the traditional symbol of the Isthmian Games celebrated at Corinth. The text records the names of the two duoviri (IIviri) responsible for the issue: C. Heius Pollio (serving for the second time, ITER) and C. Mussius Priscus. The wreath is tied at the base and frames the magistrates' names in a format standard for colonial Corinthian coinage of the Augustan and Tiberian periods. |
