| Reverse description | Tyche of Metropolis standing left in long draped garment, holding in her right hand a small statuette of Ares (the city's divine patron) and in her left a cornucopia; at her feet to the left, a lighted altar. The composition reflects the standard civic Tyche type employed by Ionian mints under the Severan and Gordian dynasties, emphasizing the city's divine protections and prosperity. |
