Reverse description The satyr Marsyas advancing to the left, depicted in full figure, playing the double flute (aulos) and carrying a wineskin over his shoulder. This mythological type, closely associated with the civic identity of Apamea Cibotus, reflects the city's legendary connection to Marsyas and the Maeander River valley. The figure is rendered in a dynamic pose typical of Hellenistic-influenced provincial bronze coinage. The ethnic legend ΑΠΑΜΕΩΝ appears in the field, identifying the issuing city.
