The effigy displays finely rendered drapery over the shoulders and chest in the provincial Greek style. A circumferential Greek legend surrounds the portrait in the field. |

| Reverse description | Standing figure of Artemis, rendered full-length facing with head turned to the right, clad in a long chiton with diplois (double-folded overfold). The goddess holds a long torch diagonally across her body with both hands. At her feet appears a stag or hound. The design reflects the prominent civic cult of Artemis Ephesia, and the surrounding legend proclaims the city's triple neocorate status. |
