| Reverse description | Two agonistic prize crowns displayed upright upon a table with curved legs; each crown bears an inscribed label identifying the respective contest. The table is rendered in three-quarter perspective with decorative curved supports, a standard iconographic convention on Greek provincial coinage celebrating local and Panhellenic sacred games. The reverse legend, distributed across the field and on the crowns, records the names of four prestigious contests associated with Aphrodisias: the Capitolia, the Pythia, and the Oikoumenika. |
