Beschrijving voorzijde Draped bust of the Empress Tranquillina facing right, her hair elaborately coiffed and bound with a diadem, rendered in the provincial Greek style characteristic of Smyrnaean civic coinage of the mid-third century AD. The effigy is set within a beaded border, with the circular Greek legend disposed around the periphery of the field. The portrait displays the refined drapery folds over the right shoulder typical of imperial consort iconography of the Gordian III period.

Beschrijving keerzijde Full-length standing figure of the Amazon Smyrna, the legendary foundress of the city, depicted facing left in the centre of the field. She holds a miniature temple in her extended hand, symbolising Smyrna's coveted triple neocorate status, and carries a double axe (labrys) and a pelta (crescent-shaped Amazonian shield), with her chlamys draped about her. The composition is enclosed within a beaded border, and the surrounding field carries the multi-line civic and magistrate legend in Greek characters, referencing the strategos Rufinus the sophist.
