| Reverse description | Draped bust of Demeter facing right, her portrait assimilated to that of Faustina II in the Antonine manner, holding a poppy and two ears of grain in her raised hand. The imagery conflates imperial dynastic ideology with the agricultural cult of Demeter, reflecting the syncretic religious practice common in Aeolian civic coinage. The magistrate's name and ethnic legend encircle the reverse field, identifying the issuing city and the strategos responsible for the emission. |
