| Reverse description | Asclepius, the god of medicine, depicted standing facing with head turned to the left. His left arm rests upon his characteristic serpent-entwined staff (the caduceus-like rod of Asclepius), while his right hand holds an uncertain object. The figure is rendered in the classical tradition common to provincial coinage of the Antonine era, with the deity's robes falling in naturalistic folds. The ethnic legend of the Claudiopolitans is inscribed in the field around the central device. |
