| Reverse description | Dionysiac scene depicting a heavily intoxicated Hercules advancing to the right, his body slumped in a state of drunkenness, being steadied and supported by two Satyrs positioned behind him, while leaning forward onto the shoulder of Pan, who stands facing left before him. The composition is lively and dynamic, reflecting the Bacchic thiasos tradition common in provincial coinage of Asia Minor. The colonial legend is disposed around the figures in the field. |
