| Reverse description | Artemis in her guise as divine huntress, depicted in dynamic rightward motion, her figure animated by billowing drapery that streams behind her. She holds a bow extended before her in her left hand, with a quiver implied on her back, capturing the goddess's iconographic association with the hunt. At her feet, a hound strides to the right, reinforcing the hunting scene. The composition is a celebrated type for Ephesus, honouring the city's patron deity, whose great temple stood as one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. The reverse legend encircling the field proudly proclaims Ephesus's primacy among the cities of the province of Asia. |
