| Reverse description | A serpent rearing erect to the left, its body coiled in tight loops at the base and its head raised prominently in the upper field, depicted in the round in high relief characteristic of Bithynian provincial bronzes. The reverse type evokes the cult serpent associated with local religious traditions. The Greek legend ΚΑΙϹΑΡΕΙΑϹ ΓΕΡΜΑΝΙΚΗϹ is distributed around the field within a beaded border, identifying the issuing city of Caesarea Germanica. |
