| Reverse description | Tyche, the personification of fortune and guardian deity of the city, stands facing with head turned to the left, wearing a kalathos (modius) upon her head. She holds a ship's rudder in her right hand and a cornucopia in her left, symbolising prosperity and navigation. The encircling Greek legend identifies the issuing civic authority. The reverse type is consistent with standard civic bronze coinage of Ionian cities under the Severan dynasty. |
