| Reverse description | The river god Maeandros reclines to the left in a languid pose, his body semi-draped, holding a tall reed in his right hand and a cornucopia in his left arm. He rests his left elbow upon an overturned water urn from which a stream flows, the conventional symbol of a river deity in Greco-Roman provincial coinage. The composition fills the flan in a manner typical of civic bronzes from Lydia struck during the reign of Philip I. The encircling Greek ethnic legend ΤΡΙΠΟΛΕΙΤΩΝ identifies the issuing city of Tripolis ad Maeandrum. |
