| Reverse description | Tyche standing left, wearing a kalathos (modius) on her head, holding a long rudder downward in her right hand and a cornucopia in her left arm, emblematic of the fortune and prosperity of the city of Ephesus. The figure is rendered in the conventional provincial Greek style, with drapery falling in soft folds. The encircling legend in the field proclaims Ephesus as a four-time neocorate city, a distinction of great civic prestige in the imperial cult. The coin's patina shows extensive green oxidation consistent with prolonged burial. |
