Reverse description Cybele, the Mother of the Gods, enthroned to the left, depicted in full figure wearing a turreted crown and long robes. She extends her right hand holding a patera and rests her left arm upon a tympanum. A lion, her sacred attribute, is shown recumbent or seated at her feet. The civic ethnic legend of Iuliopolis frames the reverse field, and the composition follows established iconographic conventions for Cybele on provincial bronzes of Asia Minor.
