| Reverse description | An eagle stands facing with wings spread, head turned to the left, its talons firmly gripping a serpent whose coils extend outward beneath the bird's feet. The type is closely associated with the cult of the sacred serpent at Comana Pontica and reflects the city's strong religious identity. The circular legend ΙΕΡΟΚΑΙϹΑ ΚΟΜΑΝΕΩΝ surrounds the type, while the date formula ΕΤ ΒΟΡ — denoting the local civic year 172, equivalent to 205–206 AD — appears in the lower exergual field. |
