Beschrijving keerzijde Zeus Heliopolites portrayed standing facing, positioned between two heifers, the deity wearing a kalathos (cylindrical crown) upon his head. In his right hand he holds a tall sceptre surmounted by a bird-shaped finial, while a small Victory figure approaches from the side to offer him a wreath. The composition reflects the syncretic Syro-Phoenician cult of Zeus Heliopolites as it was venerated in the colonial context of Dium. The reverse legend naming the city and the regnal year frames the scene in the exergual and peripheral areas.

Aanvullende informatie

Dium — the Macedonian colony in the Decapolis — struck this issue under Elagabalus during a period when the young emperor's religious reforms in Rome were generating active hostility in the Senate. Provincial mints in the eastern cities continued producing bronze coinage largely on their own civic initiative, and Dium's output under Elagabalus is sparse enough that individual die pairings can be tracked across surviving specimens. The Spijkerman reference places this firmly within the Transjordanian city's documented sequence.
