| Beschrijving keerzijde | Demeter standing left in full figure, clad in long chiton and himation, extending her right hand to hold ears of grain and grasping a tall torch in her left hand. The goddess is depicted in the canonical Hellenistic tradition, with the civic legend ΘΕΜΙϹΩΝΕΩΝ distributed around the field identifying the issuing city of Themisonium. The reverse type reflects the agricultural importance of the region within Phrygia. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Themisonium was a minor Phrygian city whose civic coinage output was modest enough that individual issues remain poorly documented in the standard corpora. Under Septimius Severus, provincial mints across Asia Minor seized on the new dynasty's need for legitimacy — local bronzes bearing the emperor's name circulated as much as political statements to Rome as they did as functional small change within the city's markets.
The conventus of Philomelium grouped several such communities for administrative and judicial purposes under Roman provincial organization, and coins attributable to member cities often show shared die-cutting workshops.
