| Reverse description | A tetrastyle temple shown in elevation, its four columns framing the cult statue of the goddess Mâ (Ma-Enyo), who stands facing frontally in a radiate crown, her right hand resting on a shield and her left hand grasping a club. Within the pediment a solar disc is depicted as a divine symbol. The reverse legend ΙΕΡΟΚΑΙϹΑ ΚΟΜΑΝΕ ΕΤ ΒΟΡ identifies the city of Comana Pontica and includes the Bithynian–Pontic era date ΒΟΡ (year 202 of the local era, corresponding to 205–206 AD), affirming the coin's civic and religious significance as a record of the sanctuary city's prestige. |
