| Reverse description | The cult statue of Apollo Smintheus depicted standing in full length atop a short column, oriented to the right, with a quiver at his shoulder. The deity holds a patera in his extended right hand and a bow in his left hand, reflecting the iconographic conventions of the celebrated sanctuary at Alexandria Troas. To the left of the column stands a cypress tree, while to the right a raven perches on what appears to be an olive branch or bush, both attributes associated with Apollo. The reverse legend is distributed in the field around the central type, referencing the colonial status of the city. |
