| Reverse description | Eagle standing to the left with head turned to the right, holding a wreath in its beak. The bird is rendered with spread wings partially folded, its body in profile occupying the central field. The ethnic legend ΑΤΤΑΙΤΩΝ is distributed around the field, identifying the issuing civic authority of Attaea. The composition is typical of Mysian provincial bronze coinage of the Antonine era, reflecting the widespread use of the eagle as a symbol of divine authority in Asia Minor. |
