| Reverse description | Standing ephebe (youth) facing right, clad in a long chiton reaching to the feet, raising his right hand to arrange his hair and diadem in a gesture associated with the gymnasiarch office. The left hand is extended open at the side. A tall vase or loutrophoros is depicted to the left of the figure, serving as an attribute of the gymnasium. The scene alludes to the civic institution of the gymnasiarchy at Ephesus, and the reverse legend identifies the issuing authority and the city's double neocorate status. |
