| Beschrijving keerzijde | Standing frontal figure of Artemis Laphria, the principal deity of the Roman colony of Patras, depicted wearing a short chiton and chlamys. The goddess holds a bow in her left hand, raised over a flaming altar at her side. To the left, a hunting dog is shown looking upward toward the deity, a motif characteristic of the Laphrian cult iconography. The composition reflects the syncretic identification of Artemis Laphria with Diana Augusta within the colonial Roman religious context. The reverse legend DEAN AV PATR surrounds the type. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Patras held the status of a Roman colony — Colonia Aroe Augusta Patrensis — since its refoundation under Augustus, which gave the city the right to strike its own bronze coinage with Latin legends, unusual for a Greek provincial mint. This piece dates to the period when Domitian was consolidating his authority following the revolt of Saturninus, and the colony's loyalty was commercially and politically useful to Rome's grip on the Peloponnese.
The reference II#232 places this within the colonial series, a relatively short sequence that ends before Domitian's damnatio memoriae in 96 AD left civic authorities across the empire quietly retiring his issues.
