| Reverse description | Hygieia, goddess of health, depicted standing facing with head turned to the left. She extends her right hand forward holding a patera for libation, while her left arm cradles a large serpent, the sacred animal associated with healing cults. The figure is rendered in the conventional Hellenistic provincial style, draped in a long chiton. The civic legend naming the city of Came and the local magistrate Tryphon is distributed around the reverse field. |
