| Reverse description | Zeus enthroned left, his draped figure occupying the central field; in his extended right hand he holds a small Nike figure, while his left hand rests upon a tall sceptre. At his feet to the left stands an eagle, a standard attribute of Zeus in Phrygian civic coinage. The reverse type follows the well-established iconographic tradition of the Zeus Nikephoros type employed by the mint of Apamea Cibotus during the joint reign of Valerian and Gallienus. The encircling legend ΕΠΙ ΤΡΥΦΩΝΟϹ ΑΠΑΜΕΩΝ records the name of the local magistrate Tryphon and the civic ethnic of the Apameans. |
