| Reverse description | Amazon Smyrna, the eponymous founder and divine patroness of the city, depicted standing facing with head turned to the left; she holds a double axe (labrys) and a pelta (crescent-shaped Amazon shield) with a chlamys draped over her arm, and a Nike figurine; at her feet lies a prow, emblematic of Smyrna's maritime prominence. The reverse legend in Greek proclaims the city's triple neocorate status and names the strategos Antiochos as presiding magistrate, all within a beaded border. |
