| Reverse description | Perseus standing facing, head turned to the right, clad in military dress and chlamys. In his outstretched right hand he holds the severed head of Medusa, while his left hand holds the harpa, the curved sword associated with his myth. The figure is rendered in a static, frontal stance typical of provincial bronze coinage of the Antonine period. The ethnic legend ΑΡΓΕΙΩΝ appears in the field. |
