| Reverse description | An agonistic prize crown, rendered as a wreath resting upon a draped prize table with legs visible beneath, flanked by two upright palm branches crossed below the crown — the classic type denoting sacred Greek games. This reverse type commemorates the Panionia and Pythia festivals celebrated at Miletus, emphasizing the city's prestige as a host of major Panhellenic-style contests. The circular Greek legend names the festivals and the issuing city, while the overall composition reflects the standard agonistic iconography used on civic bronze coinage of Asia Minor under Roman imperial rule. |
