| Beschrijving keerzijde | A river god reclines to the left in a pose characteristic of Hellenistic personification types, his body semi-draped. He holds a reed in one hand and rests his elbow upon an overturned water urn from which water flows, symbolizing the life-giving waters of a local river associated with the territory of Teos. A dotted border frames the design along the lower edge. The Greek legend in the field identifies the issuing magistrate and the civic authority, reading ϹΤ Τ Κ ΠΕΙϹΩΝΕ ΤΗΙΩΝ. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Teos, on the Ionian coast south of Smyrna, had been a city of declining regional significance for centuries by the time Septimius Severus consolidated power after the civil wars of 193 AD. Provincial bronze of this conventus was struck locally under civic authority, with magistrates' names embedded in the legends — the name partially preserved in this type's inscription almost certainly identifies a local official whose tenure bracketed some portion of Severus's eighteen-year reign.
The Pisonian reference in the legend may link to a gymnasiarch or strategos otherwise unattested in literary sources, known to scholarship only through die evidence like this.
