Reverse description A mounted horseman advancing to the right, depicted in dynamic motion astride a horse. The rider raises or carries a double axe (bipennis/labrys), an attribute associated with local Anatolian religious and civic iconography. The figural type occupies the central field, with the Greek neocorate legend distributed around the periphery. The reverse design reflects the civic pride of Hierapolis in Phrygia, particularly its status as a neocorate city. The coin shows typical provincial style with somewhat schematic rendering of the horse and rider.
