| Reverse description | Hygieia standing right, extending a patera to feed a serpent coiling upward before her, faces Asclepius standing frontally with head turned left, his right hand resting upon a knotted serpent staff. Between the two principal figures, the small chthonic deity Telesphorus stands facing, enveloped in his characteristic hooded cloak. The composition is arranged symmetrically within the field, with the magistrate's legend distributed around the periphery. The grouping of Asclepius, Hygieia, and Telesphorus is a hallmark of the healing-cult iconography characteristic of provincial Lydian bronze coinage. |
