| Beschrijving keerzijde | Tyche, the personification of civic fortune, stands in left profile, clad in a long chiton and wearing a turreted crown. In her right hand she holds a ship's rudder resting on the ground, symbolising guidance and destiny, while her left arm cradles a cornucopia overflowing with fruits, representing abundance. The figure is rendered in the typical provincial Syrian artistic style. The ethnic legend of the Lysians is distributed in the field around the figure. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Lysias was a minor Pisidian city whose civic coinage output under Gordian III was modest enough that individual die pairs can often be traced across surviving specimens. The reference VII.1#724.1 places this squarely within the Apamea conventus — the Roman administrative district used to organize assizes and, by extension, the permissions governing local bronze emissions. Cities within this conventus struck on their own initiative but required implicit sanction from the provincial governor, which kept output volumes low and survival rates correspondingly thin.
