| Reverse description | Central field bearing a wreath enclosing the Greek numeral Ϛ (digamma, representing the number 6), likely denoting a civic era year or local administrative denomination. The wreath is rendered in the typical cursory style of Nysaean civic bronzes. The surrounding legend names the local grammateus Aelius Proclus as magistrate responsible for the issue, a common feature of Greek Imperial coinage from the Lydian city of Nysa. The surface exhibits heavy granular patination consistent with long burial, with the legend partially legible around the periphery. |
