| Reverse description | A female figure, identified as the nymph or personification of Mount Olympus, reclining to the left in a relaxed pose. She holds a branch in her left hand, while before her stands a tree, a prominent landscape element referencing the sacred mountain associated with the city of Prusa. An additional branch lies on the ground plane beneath her figure. The composition is typical of Bithynian civic reverse types evoking the natural and mythological identity of the issuing city. |
