Reverse description A nude or lightly draped male athlete strides rapidly to the left, holding an upright torch in the raised hand and a palm branch in the other, emblematic of victory in the Isthmian Games celebrated at Corinth. The dynamic figure occupies the central field, rendered in the summary style characteristic of provincial bronze coinage. The reverse alludes to the prestigious athletic festivals under Hadrian's patronage.
