| Beschrijving keerzijde | Artemis Huntress depicted standing, facing forward with head turned to the right, rendered in a dynamic hunting pose. Her left hand holds a bow while her right arm reaches over the right shoulder to draw an arrow from the quiver on her back. A hound is shown at her feet, running or standing to the right, a standard iconographic element in Ephesian depictions of the goddess in her role as divine huntress. The reverse legend ΑΡΤΕΜΙϹ ΕΦΕϹΙΑ is disposed around the field, emphasizing the deep cultic significance of Artemis to the city of Ephesus. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Ephesus held a uniquely privileged position among the cities of the Conventus of Ephesus, retaining the right to strike civic bronze throughout the joint reign of Valerian I and his son Gallienus — a period defined by near-constant military crisis on multiple frontiers simultaneously. The city leaned hard into its identity as guardian of the Artemision, one of the Seven Wonders, using coinage as institutional advertising at a moment when imperial authority was fracturing badly enough that local civic pride filled the vacuum.
Valerian was captured by Shapur I of Persia around 260, the only Roman emperor taken prisoner in battle.
