| Reverse description | The river-god Kilbos personified as a bearded male figure, reclining to the left upon the ground, holding a long reed or thyrsus-like staff in one hand and resting his elbow upon an overturned water-urn from which water flows, a conventional iconographic formula for river deities in Anatolian provincial coinage. The figure is rendered in a relaxed, naturalistic pose standard to Greco-Roman numismatic convention. The encircling Greek legend names the issuing civic authority and the region. The reverse design underscores the local geographical and religious identity of Nicaea Cilbianorum in Lydia. |
