| Reverse description | Zeus standing facing with head turned to the left, his right hand extended over a small lighted altar holding a patera in the act of libation, while his left hand rests upon a tall sceptre. The deity is depicted semi-draped, with drapery falling over the lower body, in a composition typical of Hellenistic-influenced provincial coinage. The figure occupies the central field, flanked by the civic legend in Greek characters. A beaded border encircles the entire design. |
