| Reverse description | Tyche, the personification of fortune and civic prosperity, depicted standing in full figure facing left. She holds a patera in her extended right hand, pouring a libation over a small lighted altar at her side, while her left hand bears a cornucopia, symbol of abundance. The figure is rendered in the classical provincial style, with drapery falling in naturalistic folds. The reverse legend in Greek encircles the field, identifying the issuing city of Heraclea in Pontus. |
