| Reverse description | Tetrastyle temple depicted in frontal elevation, its four columns framing the standing figure of Tyche facing left within the intercolumniation; Tyche holds a rudder in her right hand and a cornucopia in her left, attributes emblematic of the city's fortune and maritime prosperity. The architectural rendering reflects the neocorate status of Smyrna, with the legend ϹΜΥΡΝΑΙΩΝ Γ ΝΕΩΚΟΡΩΝ (of the Smyrnaeans, three times neocorate) distributed in the field around the temple, affirming the city's triple imperial cult honour. |
