| Reverse description | Tyche of the city enthroned on a rocky outcrop, seated to the left, holding an eagle that faces right in her outstretched hand. At her feet, a river god swims to the left while glancing back over his shoulder, personifying the local river associated with Rhesaena. The composition is a standard civic type for Mesopotamian colonial coinage under Roman provincial authority. A bilingual legend surrounds the design, combining Greek and Latin elements in reference to the city and the Third Parthian Severan Legion. |
