| Reverse description | Aphrodite, the patron goddess of Aphrodisias, standing facing with head turned to right, holding a long sceptre in her left hand and the infant Eros in her right arm. The figure is rendered in the characteristic local style reflecting the city's renowned sculptural tradition. The surrounding field carries the dedicatory inscription naming the magistrate responsible for the issue. A partially reversed zeta (Ζ) in the legend is a noted die engraver's error documented on this issue. |
