| Beschrijving keerzijde | Mithras, clad in his characteristic Phrygian costume with billowing cape, depicted on horseback advancing to the right in a dynamic composition typical of Pontic solar-deity iconography. A tree is shown to the left of the horse, while a small altar appears to the right. The date numeral Ε ΡΞΓ (year 163 of the Pontic era, corresponding to 226-227 AD) appears in the exergue below a ground line, with the city ethnic legend distributed around the field within a dotted border. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Trapezus, the Black Sea port that would later become Trebizond, struck provincial bronzes on a local era reckoning — the "Ε ΡΞΓ" denotes year 163 of the Pontic era, anchored to 64/63 BC when Pompey reorganized the region after defeating Mithridates VI. The retrograde Ζ variant in the ethnic legend is a known die peculiarity of this issue, not a restrike or error in the modern sense, but a consequence of the engraver cutting the punch letter-by-letter without a guiding template.
