| Reverse description | Athena depicted standing, facing right, helmeted and wearing a long chiton and aegis, holding a tall spear vertically in her left hand and an owl in her extended right hand. The goddess is rendered in a dignified, classicising provincial style within a beaded border. The ethnic legend ΑΜΑϹΤΡΙΑΝΩΝ encircles the type, distributed around the field, identifying the issuing city of Amastris. The reverse presents the city's divine patroness as a civic emblem, consistent with Amastrian bronze coinage of the Antonine period. |
