| Reverse description | Tyche, the tutelary deity of the city, depicted standing facing with head turned to the left, wearing a polos or mural crown atop her head. She holds a ship's rudder in her right hand, symbolising fortune and safe navigation, and cradles a cornucopia in her left arm, emblematic of prosperity and abundance. The figure is rendered in the conventional civic iconography of Asia Minor provincial coinage, set within a dotted border. A circular Greek legend in the field names the local magistrate Nikephorion and identifies the issuing community of the Poroselenites. |
