| Reverse description | Zeus depicted nude, standing facing with head turned to the left, holding an anchor upright in his raised right hand while his left arm rests upon a tall sceptre. The figure is rendered in the classical provincial style, with the anchor serving as a distinctive civic emblem of Ancyra. The Greek magistrate's legend is distributed around the field, naming the local archon Menodoros as the issuing authority. The flan is irregular, typical of hand-struck provincial bronze coinage of the Trajanic-Hadrianic period. |
