| Reverse description | Sarapis enthroned and seated left upon a high-backed throne, his right arm extended forward over Cerberus, the three-headed guardian of the underworld, who is depicted at his feet. The god holds a long vertical sceptre in his left hand. The composition reflects the syncretic Greco-Egyptian cult prominently observed at Amastris. The ethnic legend of the issuing city is disposed around the reverse field. |
