| Reverse description | Standing figure of the Genius of the colony, shown facing left in a heroic semi-nude posture, holding a patera in the extended right hand poised over a small altar at his feet, and a cornucopia cradled in his left arm. The composition is typical of Roman colonial civic iconography, emphasizing the protective spirit of the Neronian foundation at Patras. The colonial legend is arranged in the field to either side of the central figure in two divided segments. |
