Reverse description The river-god Skamandros, personification of the sacred river of the Troad and of Troy, depicted as a semi-recumbent male figure reclining to the left in the conventional Hellenistic manner for river deities. He holds a reed in one hand and rests his arm upon an overturned water-urn from which a stream issues, symbolizing the river's source. The field above retains traces of the legend, while the ethnic ΙΛΙΕΩΝ appears in the lower field, asserting the civic identity of Ilium. The composition reflects the strong Hellenic cultural tradition maintained by the city of Ilium in its provincial bronze coinage.
