Reverse description An inscribed prize crown adorned with two upright palm branches occupies the centre of the design, resting upon a draped table with curved legs; the crown bears the legend ΓΑΛΛΙΗΝ denoting the Galliena games. Two purses, symbols of the monetary prizes awarded at the agon, flank the crown on the table surface. Along the front edge of the table is inscribed ΚΑΠΕΤΩΛΙΑ, referencing the Capitolia, one of the sacred games celebrated by the city. Beneath the table, a single vase or agonistic vessel is depicted, a standard compositional element in provincial agonistic coinage of Asia Minor. The outer field carries the civic ethnic ΑΝΤΙΟΧΕΩΝ, identifying the issuing city of Antioch ad Maeandrum.
