| Reverse description | Neptune, the Roman god of the sea, depicted standing to the left in a commanding pose, his right foot raised and resting upon a rock or prow, his right hand placed upon his right knee, while his left hand supports a long trident extending upward. The figure is rendered in a classical provincial style, with the colonial legend arranged in the field around the deity. The composition reflects the maritime significance of Patras as a major Achaean port city. |
