| Reverse description | Tyche of the city of Edessa enthroned left upon an ornate basis, holding corn ears in her extended right hand, personifying the city's prosperity and fortune. A lighted altar stands at her feet, and in the exergue below, a river god swims to the left, representing the Daisan River that flows through Edessa. The composition follows the standard civic reverse type of Edessan provincial coinage, with the Greek municipal legend arranged around the field. |
