(Translation: Julia Mamaea Augusta)
Reverse description Hephaestus, the divine craftsman and god of the forge, seated to the right on a low stool or rock, leaning forward with a hammer raised in his right hand, about to strike a shield or helmet resting across his knees. The figure is rendered in a compact, workmanlike composition characteristic of provincial bronze coinage. The ethnic legend of the issuing city appears in the field. The coin exhibits a dark olive-green patina with significant surface corrosion consistent with prolonged burial.
