| Reverse description | Heracles, the mythological patron hero of Erythrae, depicted standing facing right, his body rendered in a powerful, muscular pose characteristic of provincial bronze coinage. He raises his knotted club aloft in his right hand, while his left arm supports or drapes the Nemean lion skin — the emblematic attributes of his legendary labours. The encircling Greek legend distributed around the field records the eponymous strategos under whose magistracy the coin was struck, affirming the civic pride of the Erythraean community. |
