| Reverse description | Dionysus standing in left profile, his weight shifted onto his left leg in a contrapposto stance, pouring from a cantharus held in his extended right hand toward a panther crouching at his feet, while his left hand grasps a thyrsus held diagonally across his body. The composition reflects the standard Dionysiac iconography employed by Phrygian civic mints during the reign of Gallienus, evoking the god's close association with Acmonea's religious identity. The ethnic legend of the city is inscribed in the field around the deity. |
