| Beschrijving keerzijde | A Maenad clad in a short chiton stands facing right, her right arm raised aloft holding an unidentified object, while her left hand grasps a severed human head — an attribute consistent with Dionysiac iconography and the Bacchic thiasus. The figure is rendered in a dynamic pose typical of provincial bronze coinage from Roman Corinth. The colonial legend is disposed across the reverse field, attesting to the Julian foundation of the Corinthian colony. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Hadrian visited Corinth at least twice, and the city — refounded as a Roman colony by Julius Caesar in 44 BC after a century of abandonment following Mummius's destruction in 146 BC — responded to imperial attention with a sustained local bronze coinage. The COL IVL COR legend reflects the colony's Caesarian foundation, a distinction Corinthians kept on their coins long after it had ceased to carry any practical administrative meaning.
