| Reverse description | Cybele, the Phrygian mother goddess, enthroned and seated left upon a high-backed throne, holding a patera in her extended right hand and resting her left arm upon a tympanum. A lion reclines at her feet and beneath the throne, referencing her traditional iconographic attributes. The reverse legend in two lines around the field identifies the issuing civic authority. The composition reflects the strong local veneration of Cybele in Phrygia, where her cult was of particular importance. |
