| Reverse description | Standing cult statue of Apollo Smintheus, depicted in full figure facing right, elevated upon a short columnar base. The deity bears a quiver over the shoulder and holds a patera in the outstretched right hand and a bow in the left, reflecting the iconographic tradition of the celebrated sanctuary at Alexandria Troas. The reverse legend identifying the Roman colonial mint encircles the type. The composition is typical of Troas provincial bronze coinage honoring the local cult of Apollo Smintheus. |
