Reverse description The reverse field carries a multi-line Greek inscription enclosed within a laurel or olive wreath, a format commonly employed on civic bronze coinage of Asia Minor to commemorate local festivals and magistrates. The text records the celebration of the Theogamia festival under the authority of the grammateus Marcus Aurelius Laianos, identifying both the presiding civic official and the religious occasion. The wreath border is rendered with tied ends at the base. The coin was issued by the city of Nysa-on-the-Maeander as part of its civic coinage under the joint reign of Valerian and Gallienus.
