| Reverse description | Athena depicted in full stride advancing to the right, holding the aegis defensively before her with her extended left hand, while her right hand raises a spear. The figure is rendered in a dynamic, martial pose typical of Athenian civic bronze coinage of the Imperial period. The ethnic legend ΑΘΗΝΑΙΩΝ ('of the Athenians') appears in the field, identifying the issuing city. The style is characteristic of the provincial workshops of Achaea under Gallienus. |
