| Reverse description | The god Hermes depicted nude save for his characteristic petasus (winged traveller's hat) and chlamys cloak, advancing to the right. He grasps a ram by one horn with his right hand, dragging the animal forward, while his left hand holds a caduceus. The figure exemplifies the syncretic religious iconography of Aphrodisias, where Hermes was venerated as a civic deity. The ethnic legend ΑΦΡΟΔΙϹΙΕΩΝ is disposed around the field, identifying the issuing city. |
