| Reverse description | Two right hands clasped in a dextrarum iunctio, symbolizing concordia or alliance, depicted in moderate relief at the centre of the field. The motif is a common type on provincial bronzes of Asia Minor, conveying loyalty and mutual agreement between the city and the imperial authority. The ethnic legend of the issuing city encircles the central device, framed by a beaded border. The reverse field shows encrustation and patination consistent with prolonged burial, though the main design elements remain discernible. |
