| Beschrijving keerzijde | Athena standing facing, head turned to left, clad in aegis and chiton, holding a long spear in her right hand with a serpent coiling upward around the shaft, her left arm resting upon a large round shield set on the ground. The goddess is depicted in a statuesque, hieratic pose characteristic of civic deity types employed on Phrygian provincial bronzes. The ethnic legend ΔΟΡΥΛΑΕΩΝ appears in the field, identifying the issuing city of Dorylaeum. The overall composition reflects the standard Athenaic reverse type widely used by cities of the Conventus of Synnada during the Antonine period. |

Dorylaeum sat at a critical road junction in Phrygia, and its civic coinage under Commodus reflects a municipality eager to demonstrate loyalty during a reign defined by the emperor's increasingly erratic self-promotion. The city's issues from this narrow window — roughly coinciding with Commodus's adoption of Herculean identity around 187–190 — are relatively scarce compared to output from larger conventus centers like Pergamon or Ephesus.
The ethnic genitive ΔΟΡΥΛΑΕΩΝ places this firmly within the Synnada conventus, the administrative judicial circuit that handled provincial disputes across central Phrygia.
