| Reverse description | Artemis, the patron deity of Ephesus, shown advancing to the right, clad in a short belted chiton appropriate to the huntress. She holds a bow in her extended left hand while her right hand reaches back over her shoulder to draw an arrow from the quiver; a hound bounds at her feet. The composition reflects the iconographic tradition closely associated with the Ephesian civic coinage, emphasizing the city's devotion to Artemis. The encircling Greek legend asserts Ephesus's preeminent status among the cities of Asia. |
