| Reverse description | A male figure advances to the right, bearing what appears to be a sack or bundle over one shoulder and holding a transverse trident, attributes possibly associated with a local deity or heroic figure. To the left, a second figure is depicted on the ground, seemingly recumbent or crouching and holding an uncertain object. The composition reflects the local Argive iconographic tradition, and the reverse legend in Greek identifies the issuing city. The overall workmanship is consistent with provincial bronze issues of the Antonine period. |
