| Reverse description | Heracles depicted standing facing, head turned to the left, shown nude in the heroic manner. He holds a grounded club in his right hand and drapes the Nemean lion skin over his left arm, while extending a cantharus (wine cup) in his left hand — an unusual iconographic combination referencing both his labours and his association with the symposiastic cult at Smyrna. The encircling legend proclaims the city's triple neocorate status. |
