| Reverse description | Tyche, the personification of civic fortune, depicted standing to the left in full figure, clad in a long chiton and himation with drapery falling in detailed folds. She wears a kalathos (basket crown) upon her head as an emblem of civic prosperity, holds a ship's rudder downward in her right hand symbolising guidance, and cradles a cornucopia in her left arm signifying abundance. The legend ϹΑΜΙΩΝ is disposed around the field, identifying this as a civic issue of the city of Samos. |
