| Reverse description | The goddess Demeter advancing briskly to the right, rendered in full figure, her arms outstretched and each hand holding a lighted torch aloft in a striding posture expressive of divine purpose. The figure is depicted in flowing drapery, consistent with the iconographic tradition of Demeter as torch-bearing goddess of grain and the mysteries. The Greek ethnic legend of the neocorate city of Cyzicus is distributed around the reverse field. |
