| Reverse description | A ram standing to the right occupies the central field, rendered in a sturdy, naturalistic style characteristic of Amastrian civic coinage. Behind the ram, an eagle perches atop a tall column, facing right, serving as a prominent civic symbol of the city. The ethnic legend ΑΜΑϹΤΡΙΑΝΩΝ curves around the field, identifying the issuing authority. The composition references the local religious and civic identity of Amastris in Pontus. The overall style is consistent with provincial bronze coinage of the Severan era. |
