| 背面描述 | Tyche, the personification of fortune and civic prosperity, stands facing left wearing a kalathos (cylindrical basket crown) upon her head. In her right hand she holds the celebrated cult statue of Artemis Ephesia, the distinctive many-breasted idol that served as the sacred emblem of Ephesus, while her left hand cradles a cornucopia symbolizing abundance. The reverse legend proudly proclaims the city's prestigious status as a four-time neocorate, reflecting Ephesus's repeated honor of maintaining imperial cult temples — a distinction of the highest civic rank in the province of Asia. The composition is characteristic of Ephesian civic pride during the Severan dynasty. |

Ephesus held the title of neokoros — temple warden — four times by the reign of Severus Alexander, a distinction fiercely contested among the great cities of Asia Minor and occasionally stripped by imperial decree as punishment for political disloyalty. The Δ ΝΕΩΚΟΡΩΝ legend on this piece was not ceremonial padding; it was a civic argument, struck in bronze and circulated as proof of standing within the Roman provincial hierarchy.
