| Reverse description | Tyche of Laertes depicted standing to the left, robed in a long chiton and himation, wearing a kalathos (modius) on her head as an attribute of civic fortune. She holds a ship's rudder in her right hand, symbolising guidance and prosperity, and a cornucopia in her left, denoting abundance. The ethnic legend of the city encircles the type. A beaded border frames the design, and the reverse fabric is better preserved than the obverse, allowing the standing figure to be clearly identified. |
