| Beschrijving keerzijde | Full-length figure of turreted Concordia/Homonoia standing left, her head crowned with a turreted mural crown, extending a patera in her right hand and cradling a cornucopia in her left arm. The figure is rendered in the typical provincial colonial style of Patras, with the colonial legend distributed around the field. The composition reflects the city's loyalty and civic harmony under Roman imperial authority. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Patras held the status of a Roman colony — Colonia Aroe Augusta Patrensis — granted by Augustus following his victory at Actium in 31 BC, a settlement planted deliberately close to the battle site. By the time this piece was struck, the colony was nearly two centuries old and its bronze coinage functioned as a highly localized fiduciary currency, circulating within the city and its immediate territory rather than across the broader province of Achaea.
The reign of Marcus Aurelius saw provincial bronze production across Greece remain modest in volume, with many issues surviving in small numbers today.
