| Beschrijving keerzijde | Tyche standing in left profile, draped in a long chiton and himation, wearing a turreted crown upon her head. In her extended right hand she holds a patera tilted over a small lighted altar at her feet, performing a libation. Her left arm cradles a large cornucopia overflowing with fruits. The civic legend of Heraclea in Pontus is distributed around the field in the characteristic Greek lettering of the provincial mint. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Heraclea Pontica had a complicated relationship with Rome during Severus's reign — the city had backed Pescennius Niger in the civil war of 193–194, and Severus punished it severely after Niger's defeat, stripping it of territory and privileges. That this civic bronze was struck at all suggests the city had sufficiently recovered, or sufficiently submitted, to resume normal municipal coin production sometime after the reprisals.
