| Reverse description | A Capricorn, the mythological sea-goat emblematic of the Julian dynasty and the colony of Parium, strides to the right holding a globe in its forelegs. Above the creature, a cornucopia rises into the upper field, symbolising abundance and prosperity. The composition occupies the central field, with the colonial abbreviation legend C G I H P (Colonia Gemella Iulia Hadriana Pariana) disposed around the type, identifying the issuing authority. The strike is characteristic of provincial hammered bronze coinage of the early third century AD. |
