| Reverse description | Athena standing facing right, holding an owl in her extended right hand and grasping a downward-pointing spear in her left. A coiled serpent rises to the right of the figure, a traditional Athenian iconographic element associated with Erechtheus and the Acropolis cult. The composition reflects the enduring use of classical Athenian civic imagery in provincial bronze coinage of the Gallienic period. The reverse legend ΑΘΗΝΑΙΩΝ (of the Athenians) is inscribed in the field. |
