Beschrijving keerzijde Tyche, the personification of civic fortune, stands facing left in long chiton and himation, her head turreted. She holds a ship's rudder in her right hand and a cornucopia in her left arm, emblems of prosperity and the city's destiny. The ethnic legend ΑΜΟΡΙΑΝΩΝ is disposed around the field, identifying the issuing community of Amorium. The reverse is enclosed within a plain border, the entire composition typical of Phrygian provincial bronze coinage of the Severan period.

Aanvullende informatie

Amorium sat in the interior of Phrygia, well removed from the major administrative centers of Asia Minor, and its civic coinage under Septimius Severus reflects the modest output typical of smaller conventus towns during his reign. The city's coins from this period are rarely encountered, and when they do appear, the bronzes almost invariably show heavy wear from prolonged local circulation — the limited economic reach of inland Phrygian markets meant these coins stayed close to home and changed hands often.
