| Reverse description | Asclepius, the god of medicine, depicted standing facing with head turned to the left, his weight resting on a serpent-entwined staff (the kerykeion of healing) held in his right hand. The figure is rendered in the typical provincial style of Bithynian civic coinage of the Severan period. The encircling Greek legend identifies the issuing city and its honorific neocorate status. A dotted border runs along the coin's outer edge. |
