| Reverse description | The distinctive xoanon-type cult statue of Aphrodite of Aphrodisias stands facing right, rendered in the stiff hieratic style associated with this celebrated idol, adorned with multiple registers of relief decoration on the body. To the left, a priestess is seated facing right, with a star in the upper field above her; to the right, a fountain or architectural element appears, with a crescent in the upper field above it. The ethnic legend ΑΦΡΟΔΕΙϹΙΕΩΝ encircles the design. |
