| Reverse description | Standing nude male figure identified as the Genius of Patras, depicted facing with head turned to the left. The figure holds a patera in the right hand, extended over a low altar at his side, and rests the left arm upon a conical object — likely a modius or cista — set upon a base. The composition reflects standard colonial Roman reverse iconography, emphasizing the religious and civic character of the colony. The abbreviated colonial legend is distributed around the figure in the field. |
