| Reverse description | Ares, the god of war, depicted standing facing with head turned to the right, rendered in the Hellenistic tradition typical of Ionian civic bronzes. The deity holds an upright spear in one hand while the other rests upon a grounded round shield at his side. The ethnic legend ΜΗΤΡΟΠΟΛΕΙΤΩΝ is distributed around the figure in the field, identifying the issuing civic authority of Metropolis in Ionia. |
