| Reverse description | The Genius of the colony stands facing left in the field, rendered in a static, hieratic pose characteristic of provincial civic coinage. In his right hand he holds a small cult statue of Apollo Smintheus, depicted with quiver and bow, referencing the celebrated sanctuary near Alexandria Troas. In his left hand he bears a cornucopia, symbolizing the prosperity of the Augustan colony. The colonial legend is distributed around the figure in the field. |
