| Reverse description | The god Ares, patron deity of martial virtue, stands facing right in a rigid, frontal-adjacent pose, clad in military attire with a crested helmet. In his raised right hand he grasps a long spear held vertically, while his left hand rests upon a large round shield set upright on the ground beside him. The figure is rendered in the robust, somewhat provincial style characteristic of Cilician civic bronze coinage of the joint reign of Valerian I and Gallienus. The ethnic legend ΛΑΕΡΤΕΙΤΩΝ, identifying the issuing city of Laertes, is distributed around the figure within a dotted border. |
