背面描述	Zeus depicted standing, facing the viewer with head turned to the right, holding a long sceptre in his right hand while his left hand rests upon his hip. The figure is rendered in a statuesque, dignified pose consistent with the Pheidian tradition of Zeus imagery on provincial Greek coinage. The ethnic legend of the issuing city appears in the field. The reverse type underscores the religious and civic identity of Zacynthus, where the cult of Zeus held prominence.

附加信息	Zacynthus — the Ionian island Homer called "wooded" — produced only a sparse civic bronze coinage under Roman rule, and issues attributable to Marcus Aurelius's reign are among the least documented in the regional series. The island held no special administrative status under the empire and generated little epigraphic or numismatic attention from ancient sources, which makes any surviving civic bronze from this period more interesting for what it implies about local institutional continuity than for what Rome sanctioned from above.
