Beschrijving keerzijde Dionysus depicted standing to the left in the field, his weight shifted in a relaxed contrapposto stance. In his right hand he raises a cantharus, the wine-cup emblematic of his cult, while his left hand holds a long thyrsus, the ivy-wreathed staff associated with Bacchic ritual. The figure is rendered in the summary provincial style typical of Carian civic bronzes. The ethnic legend of the issuing city is disposed around the figure in the field, and the coin is bordered by a dotted circle.

Aanvullende informatie

Neapolis ad Harpasum was a small Carian city whose coins are sparsely documented — the IX#760 reference places this firmly within the regional conventus coinage issued under Roman provincial administration, but the city itself left almost no literary trace. Trebonianus Gallus came to power after Decius and his son Hostilian both died in 251, Decius killed fighting Goths at the Battle of Abrittus and Hostilian almost certainly eliminated by Gallus himself, making the two-year reign that generated this bronze an uncomfortable one from its very start.
