| Beschrijving keerzijde | Pan, the pastoral deity, depicted seated left upon a rocky outcropping, his right hand raised toward his head in a contemplative or resting gesture, while his left elbow rests upon his syrinx (pan-pipes), the instrument closely associated with the god. The composition is rendered in the provincial Romano-Macedonian style typical of colonial Pella issues. The colonial legend encircles the reverse field. |

The garbled legend COL IVL AVS PGLLA — almost certainly a die-cutter's error for the standard colonial title of Pella (Colonia Iulia Augusta Pella) — is the distinguishing feature of this type and the reason it circulates among specialists as a distinct variety. Pella, refounded as a Roman colony under Augustus, retained its colonial titulature on civic bronzes well into the third century. Dies for provincial issues were cut locally, and the quality of letter-cutting varied considerably from workshop to workshop.
