| Reverse description | Front elevation of a tetrastyle temple with four columns on a stepped podium, rendered in perspective. Within the intercolumniation stands a frontal figure of Tyche, head turned to the left, holding a ship's rudder in her right hand and a cornucopia in her left arm, attributes emblematic of the city's maritime prosperity and abundance. The reverse legend in Greek encircles the composition, asserting Smyrna's status as a three-time neocorate city, a prestigious honor granted for the maintenance of imperial cult temples. |
