| Reverse description | Dionysus, the god of wine, stands facing left in a relaxed contrapposto pose, holding a cantharus (wine cup) in his extended right hand and a thyrsus (fennel staff) in his left. A panther, sacred to Dionysus, crouches at his feet. The ethnic legend ΜΙΔΑΕΩΝ appears in the field, attributing the issue to the civic mint of Midaeum in Phrygia. The iconography is consistent with the widespread veneration of Dionysus across the cities of the Conventus of Synnada. |
