| Beschrijving keerzijde | Artemis, the patron deity of Ephesus, depicted standing and facing right, clad in short hunting dress with quiver at her shoulder. The goddess reaches forward with both hands to grasp the antlers of a stag that kneels or crouches before her, subduing the animal in a dynamic hunting pose characteristic of Ephesian civic coinage. The scene is enclosed within a dotted border, with the civic legend disposed around the field referencing Ephesus's double neocorate status. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Ephesus held the title of neokoros — temple warden of the imperial cult — multiple times over, and the Β ΝΕΟΚΟΡΩ legend on this issue records its status as twice-granted that honor. The designation mattered enormously in the competitive civic culture of Roman Asia Minor, where cities lobbied the Senate and emperor aggressively for each successive neokorate, which conferred prestige, pilgrimage traffic, and tax revenue tied to festival games.
Ephesus received its second neokorate under Hadrian, decades before Severus's reign.
