| Reverse description | A portable religious shrine (naiskos) supported by carry-bars at its base and framed by four columns, enclosing a seated cult statue of the Tyche of Antioch facing front, with the river god Orontes depicted at her feet; above the shrine, a ram running to the right, referencing the zodiacal sign associated with Antioch. The composition reflects the celebrated Eutychides type of the city's tutelary deity. Field inscriptions Δ and Ε appear to the left and right respectively, denoting the four eparchies, while S C in the lower field indicates senatorial authority. |
