| Reverse description | Heracles standing to the left in the field, his muscular figure rendered in the classical manner; he holds a patera in his extended right hand, while his left arm supports the knotted club and the Nemean lion's skin. The encircling legend proclaims the city's distinguished status as three-time neocorate, a mark of exceptional imperial favour. The type reflects Smyrna's longstanding association with Heracles as a civic patron deity. |
