| Reverse description | Zeus enthroned to the left upon an ornate throne, his body draped in himation from the waist down, extending a patera in his right hand and holding a long sceptre upright in his left. The composition follows the canonical seated Zeus type widely employed in Phrygian provincial coinage of the third century AD. The figure is rendered with broad, somewhat schematic modelling characteristic of civic mint engraving. A multi-line Greek legend distributed around and below the type names the local magistrate Aurelius Marcus, serving as archon for the second time, and identifies the issuing civic community of the Cidyessians. |
