| Beschrijving keerzijde | Full-length figure of Ceres (Demeter) striding to the right, depicted in flowing drapery, holding a lighted torch in each raised hand, emblematic of her search for Persephone. The composition is rendered in the compact provincial style typical of Mysian civic coinage. The reverse legend, identifying the colonial mint of Parium, is distributed around the field. The overall style reflects the Hellenistic iconographic tradition adapted for Roman provincial use. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Parium, a Roman colony on the southern shore of the Propontis, held colonial status from the Augustan period and retained the right to strike bronze for local use well into the imperial era. This issue falls within the first years of Marcus Aurelius's sole reign, before Lucius Verus departed for the east to prosecute the Parthian War — a campaign that would bring plague back to the empire along with its victories.
The Conventus of Adramyteum grouping reflects Roman administrative organization of Asia Minor for judicial and fiscal purposes, with Parium among the westernmost colonial mints operating under that jurisdiction.
