Reverse description Neptune, the god of the sea, depicted standing to the left in a commanding full-length figure, holding a long trident upright in his left hand and a dolphin in his extended right hand. The composition reflects Sinope's deep maritime identity as a prominent Black Sea port city, with Neptune serving as a fitting civic type for the colony. The legend surrounding the field records the colonial titulature and regnal year of the issue, consistent with Pontic provincial coinage conventions of the joint reign of Valerian and Gallienus.
