| Reverse description | Athena, the patron goddess, depicted standing to the left, extending a patera over a lighted altar in her right hand while holding an upright spear in her left. A large round shield rests at her side. The reverse type reflects the civic pride and religious identity of the city of Methymna on Lesbos, rendered in a style typical of provincial Greek bronzes of the Severan-Antonine transitional era. The ethnic legend of the issuing city is inscribed around the reverse field. |
