| Reverse description | Athena, the patron deity of the city, stands in full figure facing left in the field. In her extended right hand she holds a patera, while her left arm rests on a round shield set on the ground beside her, with a spear also supported against her left side. The goddess is rendered in the classical Athenian tradition, conveying civic and martial authority. The reverse legend ΑΔΡΙΑΝΩΝ ΚΙΑΝΩΝ, meaning 'of the Hadrianic Cians', curves around the design, reflecting the honorific title granted to the city of Cius under Hadrian. |
