Reverse description Dionysus, the god of wine, depicted standing to the left in a relaxed contrapposto pose, holding a cantharus in his outstretched right hand and a thyrsus in his left. At his feet, a panther crouches to the left, a standard Dionysiac attribute in provincial coinage of the Pergamene conventus. The reverse legend, distributed around the field, identifies the civic magistrate responsible for the issue and names the city of Germe. The composition reflects the strong Dionysiac cult tradition attested in this region of Mysia during the Severan and Philippan periods.
