Reverse description Standing female divinity facing, head turned to the left, wearing a polos headdress and veil, identified tentatively as the tutelary goddess of Heraclea Pontica, possibly assimilated with Hera or Tyche. The figure extends one hand forward and holds what appears to be a cornucopia in the other arm. The reverse legend ΗΡΑΚΛΕΩΤΑΝ ΠΟΝΤΩ is disposed around the figure in the field, naming the city of the Heracleans in Pontus. The provincial execution reflects the local civic workshop style of early third-century Bithynia.
