| Reverse description | A female deity, likely Kore (Persephone), stands facing with head turned to the left, clad in a long chiton reaching to her feet. She holds a long sceptre in one hand, presented in a dignified, hieratic pose typical of Lydian provincial coinage. The ethnic legend ΝΥϹΑΕΩΝ is inscribed in the field, identifying the issuing city of Nysa ad Maeandrum. The reverse design reflects the strong local religious traditions of Nysa, where the cult of Kore was prominent. |
