| Reverse description | Aesculapius (Asclepius), the god of medicine, seated right on a throne or rocky outcrop, extending his right hand to grasp the right foreleg of a bull standing to the left before him, in a gesture evoking divine healing and sacrificial ritual. The reverse legend, distributed around the field, references a local civic dedication or magistrate formula. The composition is typical of Mysian provincial bronzes honouring Hellenic healing deities, executed in a relatively detailed but provincial engraving style. |
