Beschrijving voorzijde Draped bust of the Senate personified, facing right, with hair elaborately arranged in layered waves and curls, rendered in the provincial Greek style typical of Hadrianic-era Asia Minor coinage. The figure wears a draped garment visible at the shoulder and chest. The Greek legend ΙΕΡΑ ϹΥΝΚΛΗΤΟϹ ('Sacred Senate') runs around the periphery of the flan.

Beschrijving keerzijde Heracles depicted nude, standing facing left, extending his right hand forward to present the apple of the Hesperides. His left hand holds his characteristic attributes: a grounded club and the Nemean lion skin draped over his arm. The composition follows a well-established Hellenistic type common in provincial Lydian coinage of the imperial period. The magistrate's name and civic ethnic appear in the surrounding field and exergue.

Aanvullende informatie

Grimenothyrae was a minor Lydian city whose civic coinage under Hadrian consistently names a local magistrate — here Asklepiades — in the genitive formula typical of western Anatolian bronze issues. The city held no special imperial favor and left almost no literary record; these coins are often the primary evidence that the polis functioned as an independent issuing authority at all during the Hadrianic period.
