| Reverse description | Cybele, the Anatolian mother goddess, enthroned facing left upon a high-backed throne, holding a patera in her extended right hand and resting her left hand upon a tympanum. One or two lions are depicted seated at her sides, emblematic of her divine role as mistress of wild nature. The multi-line Greek legend naming the local archon Publius Demetrianos and the civic ethnonym of the Cotiaeans is distributed across the field. The composition reflects the strong local veneration of Cybele at Cotiaeum in Phrygia during the joint reign of Valerian and Gallienus. |
