| Reverse description | Artemis, patron goddess of Ephesus, depicted as divine huntress driving a biga drawn by two galloping stags moving to the right. The goddess reaches back with her right hand to draw an arrow from the quiver at her shoulder while holding the bow in her left hand, conveying dynamic motion. This reverse type is a celebrated design of the Ephesian civic coinage, underscoring the city's pre-eminent religious association with Artemis and its proud status as first city of Asia. The Greek civic legend is distributed in the field around the figural group. |
