| Beschrijving keerzijde | Two Nemeses standing facing each other in the field, each plucking her chiton at the breast in the characteristic Nemesis gesture. The figure to the left holds a cubit rule, while the figure to the right holds a bridle; a wheel appears at the feet of the latter, serving as a further attribute of Nemesis. The composition reflects the well-known Smyrnaean veneration of the twin Nemeses. The Greek magistrate legend is disposed around the type. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Smyrna was among the most politically aggressive cities in the provincia Asia when it came to cultivating imperial favor, and the magistrate named in this coin's legend — Claudius Straton — is attested in several local bronze issues from the Severan period, suggesting a tenure of some administrative weight. The city had invested heavily in its relationship with Rome since winning the right to establish a second neokorate under Marcus Aurelius, and local bronze production under named strategoi like Straton served partly as civic self-promotion directed at the imperial court.
The Ε in the obverse legend likely denotes a fifth emission within a numbered civic series.
