| Reverse description | A Capricorn, the celestial emblem associated with Augustus and subsequently adopted as a colonial symbol at Parium, swims to the right. The creature holds a celestial globe between its front hooves, and a cornucopia rests upon its back, symbolising prosperity and divine favour. The reverse legend C G I H P, arranged around the type, abbreviates the full colonial title of the mint city. The composition is well-centred and characteristic of the civic bronze coinage struck at Colonia Gemella Iulia Hadriana Pariana. |
