| Reverse description | A veiled tutelary goddess, tentatively identified as a local Tyche, Hera, or Pomona, stands facing with head turned to the left. She wears a polos (cylindrical crown) atop her veil and holds an apple in one hand and ears of corn in the other, symbolising fertility and civic abundance. The figure is rendered in the static, frontal provincial style characteristic of Pontic civic coinage. The Greek ethnic legend of Heraclea Pontica frames the reverse field. |
