| Reverse description | Apollo Klarios, the oracular deity venerated at the sanctuary near Colophon, seated left upon a throne, his body draped in a himation; he extends his right hand holding a laurel branch and rests his left arm upon a kithara (lyre) set on the throne beside him. A tall tripod, emblematic of Apollo's prophetic function, stands to the left in the field. The legend ΚΟΛΟΦΩΝΙΩΝ is partially visible around the design within a dotted border, affirming the civic identity of this emission. |
