| Reverse description | Asclepius, the god of medicine, depicted standing facing with head turned to the left, clad in a long chiton and himation. He holds in his right hand the serpent-entwined staff (the caduceus of Asclepius), a prominent divine attribute, while the serpent coils prominently at the lower left of the field. The encircling Greek legend ΠΡΟΥϹΑΕωΝ identifies the issuing city of Prusa ad Olympum. The type reflects the city's veneration of Asclepius as a civic deity. |
