| Reverse description | Asclepius, the god of medicine, stands facing with head turned to the left, draped in a himation, his weight resting on a tall knotted serpent-staff (the caduceus of Asclepius) which he grasps with his right hand. The figure is rendered in the classical Hellenistic tradition favoured by Pergamene civic coinage, befitting a city that housed one of antiquity's most celebrated Asclepieion sanctuaries. The encircling Greek legend references the city's double neocorate status and the magistrate Pollio. A ground line is visible beneath the figure. |
