Reverse description Asclepius, the god of medicine, depicted standing to the right with legs crossed in a relaxed contrapposto pose, leaning upon his attribute, the serpent-entwined staff (kerykeion of Asclepius). The figure is rendered in the typical provincial Greek style of the Severan period, with the deity's garment falling loosely about the lower body. The multi-line Greek magistrate legend surrounds and fills the field, naming the local strategos responsible for the coinage issue.
