| Reverse description | Frontal view of the renowned temple of Aphrodite at Paphos (Cyprus), depicted as a tetrastyle or distyle structure housing the sacred conical xoanon (aniconic cult image) of the goddess within its cella. The temple is set within a semicircular walled temenos or courtyard, the enclosure wall inscribed ΠΑΦΙΑ identifying the Paphian cult. The architectural rendering faithfully evokes the famous sanctuary as known from other ancient depictions. The encircling legend ΠΕΡΓΑΜΗΝΩΝ ΕΠΙ ϹΤΡ Ι ΠΩΛΛΙΩΝΟϹ names the city of Pergamum and the presiding strategos I. Pollio, under whose authority the coin was struck. |
