In her right hand she holds a ship's rudder, symbolizing the guidance of fate, while her left arm cradles a cornucopia overflowing with abundance. The encircling Latin legend records the colonial title and the regnal year of the Pontic era (year 268, corresponding to 198 AD). A beaded border frames the composition. |
