| Reverse description | Artemis, the patron goddess of Ephesus, striding vigorously to the right in the act of drawing her bow, her garment rendered in dynamic folds that emphasize her forward motion. A quiver is depicted at her shoulder, and a hound runs alongside her at her feet, both attributes emblematic of the huntress goddess. A star appears in the field, likely symbolizing divine favour or civic distinction. The reverse legend, proclaiming Ephesus as the foremost city of Asia, surrounds the scene and reflects the city's proud neokorate status. A dotted border frames the entire composition. |
