| Beschrijving keerzijde | The river-god Hermos depicted as a reclining male figure oriented left, his lower body draped in a himation in the classical Greco-Roman tradition. He holds a reed in his right hand and rests his left arm upon an overturned urn from which water flows, the canonical iconographic attribute of a river deity. The ethnic inscription ΑΙΟΛΕΩΝ ΚΥΜΑΙωΝ (of the Aeolian Cymeans) appears in the surrounding legend, with ΕΡΜΟϹ inscribed in the exergue below the figure. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Cyme, one of the oldest Greek settlements on the Aeolian coast, retained its civic identity under Roman rule partly through coinages like this one — struck in the joint name of both Cyme and the Hermos River, the principal waterway of the Smyrna conventus. The river's inclusion in the exergue was not decorative convention but a genuine expression of regional geography and shared civic pride among the Aeolian communities that clustered along its banks.
