| Reverse description | The Genius of Patras depicted as a nude male figure standing facing, head turned to the left. In his right hand he holds a patera extended over a flaming altar, while his left arm rests upon a conical omphalos or cult object set upon a base. The composition reflects the civic religious iconography characteristic of Roman colonial coinage in Achaea, with the colony's legend disposed around the figure in the field. |
