| Reverse description | Draped bust of Tyche of Laodicea facing left, wearing a turreted mural crown upon her head and adorned with bunches of grapes at the shoulder, emblematic of the city's renowned viticulture. The civic legend encircles the field, identifying the issuing community as the Julians also called Laodiceans, with the Greek era date ΚΑϹ ϘΡ appended. The composition is characteristic of Syrian provincial coinage celebrating the local tutelary deity. The engraving style is typical of the eastern mint workshops active during the reign of Antoninus Pius. |
