| Reverse description | Artemis, the patron deity of the Hypaepeni, stands facing right in a dynamic pose, clad in a short chiton; she holds a bow in her lowered hand and raises her right hand toward a quiver at her shoulder. A star appears in the field, a common celestial symbol associated with divine huntress iconography on Lydian provincial bronzes. The reverse legend, disposed in a circular arrangement around the type, records the name of the local strategos Condianus and identifies the issuing civic community. The overall style is typical of the provincial workshops operating under the Ephesian conventus during the joint reign of Valerian and Gallienus. |
