| Beschrijving keerzijde | An agonistic prize table depicted in three-quarter perspective, its legs ornamented in the Hellenistic tradition, supporting two agonistic prize crowns, each adorned with a single palm branch symbolising victory. This reverse type is characteristic of Ephesus during its tenure as the preeminent agonistic city of Asia Minor, celebrating the Oikoumenikoi games. The surrounding legend proclaims Ephesus as the first city of the province and holder of the prestigious title of four-time neocorate. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Ephesus held the title of neokoros — temple warden of the imperial cult — four times by the reign of Elagabalus, a distinction fiercely competed among the great cities of Asia Minor and adjudicated by the Roman Senate. The legend ΟΙΚΟΥΜΕΝΙΚΟΙ references the ecumenical games held at Ephesus, a festival of pan-Hellenic ambition that the city used aggressively to assert its primacy over rivals like Smyrna and Pergamon. Elagabalus confirmed and exploited these civic honors to shore up loyalty in the wealthy eastern provinces during his chaotic four-year reign.
