Beschrijving keerzijde Artemis Anaïtis depicted standing facing, heavily veiled and fully draped in a long chiton reaching to her feet, her arms held at her sides in a hieratic, frontal pose characteristic of this Lydian cult image. The goddess is rendered in the distinctive provincial manner associated with the sacred sanctuary at Hypaepa, reflecting the local veneration of this syncretistic deity. The surrounding Greek legend in the field names the local magistrate and the issuing civic community. The coin's green patinated field frames the central figure symmetrically.

Aanvullende informatie

Hypaepa was a minor Lydian city whose coins almost invariably name the serving strategos — here Titus Flavius Hierax — making civic bronzes from this mint unexpectedly useful as prosopographical documents. The magistrate formula ΕΠΙ with a named official was a convention of the Ephesian conventus, where Roman administrative oversight ran deep enough that local magistrates competed openly for the prestige of appearing on the coinage.

Septimius Severus secured the eastern provinces after defeating Pescennius Niger at Issus in 194 AD, and cities throughout Lydia rapidly realigned their civic output to flatter the new dynasty.
