Reverse description A galley with oarsmen proceeding to the right, depicted with a curved hull, visible oars in motion, and a steering oar at the stern, a motif emblematic of the maritime city of Apamea Myrlea on the Propontis. The civic abbreviation legend is arranged in the field around the vessel. The composition reflects the city's pride in its naval heritage and prominent position along Bithynian coastal trade routes. The reverse field shows the typical flat, slightly granular surface of a heavily circulated provincial bronze.
