| Reverse description | Asclepius, the god of medicine, depicted standing facing with head turned to the left, clad in a long himation draped over the lower body. He holds his characteristic serpent-entwined staff (the asklepios) in his right hand, with the serpent coiling upward around the rod. The civic ethnic legend ΠΡΟΥϹΑΕΩΝ is disposed around the figure in the field, identifying the issuing city of Prusa ad Olympum, all within a beaded border. |
