Reverse description Tyche of Oea depicted standing or seated, holding a rudder and cornucopia as attributes of civic fortune and prosperity, rendered in a bold but somewhat schematic provincial style. A Neo-Punic inscription reading 'pyln wyᶜt' (meaning 'of the Oeans' or referencing civic magistrates) is distributed in the field around the central figure. The design reflects the bilingual and bicultural character of Oea, blending Hellenistic iconographic conventions with local Punic epigraphic tradition. The reverse die is struck on an irregular flan, with moderate to heavy wear across the high points of the relief.
