Reverse description A radiate military figure, identified with the imperial cult or a divine protector, stands frontally atop a two-storied architectural monument, bearing a shield and spear. The monument is flanked on each side by a column surmounted by a standing figure holding a spear, with a city wall visible in the background, evoking the colonia's civic pride. The composition reflects the elaborate architectural reverse types characteristic of Parion's provincial bronze coinage under the sole reign of Gallienus. The reverse legend, partially retrograde, identifies the issuing colony in abbreviated Latin.
