| Reverse description | A Roman plough (aratrum) depicted centrally within a laurel wreath, symbolizing the colonial foundation and agricultural character of the Sinopean colony. The abbreviated legend EX D D (ex decreto decurionum, meaning 'by decree of the town council') appears in the field or exergue, attesting to the civic authority under which this issue was struck. The wreath is rendered in a simple provincial style consistent with Augustan-era colonial bronzes. |
