| Reverse description | Athena standing left in full figure, clad in chiton and aegis, extending a patera over a flaming altar to her left, and holding a long spear upright in her right hand, with a round shield resting against her side. The composition is a common reversal type for civic bronzes of the Pergamene conventus, evoking the city's tutelary cult. The ethnic legend ΑΤΤΑΛΕΑΤΩΝ fills the field around the figure, identifying the issuing civic authority. The strike is somewhat weak, with the flan showing characteristic irregularity of provincial hammered coinage. |
