Reverse description A tetrastyle temple with four columns and an arcuated (arched) lintel is depicted in frontal elevation, rendered in the characteristic schematic style of Carianprovincial coinage. Within the intercolumniation stands a cult statue of Aphrodite, the city's patron deity, facing right. The architectural pediment and column details are visible despite moderate wear. The ethnic legend of the Aphrodisians in the genitive case appears around the design, identifying the issuing civic authority.
