Reverse description Cybele, the Phrygian mother goddess, seated on a throne facing left, holding a patera in her extended right hand and resting her left arm upon a tympanum. A lion is depicted on either side of her throne, serving as her divine attendants and emblems of her cult. The civic legend ΠΡΥΜΝΗϹϹΕΩΝ encircles the type, identifying the issuing city of Prymnessus in Phrygia. The composition reflects the strong local veneration of Cybele, whose cult was particularly prominent in this region of Asia Minor.
