| Reverse description | Youthful head of Dionysus facing right, crowned with an ivy wreath; traces of drapery visible at the neck. The composition reflects the strong Dionysiac cult traditions of Amisus, a prominent city of Pontus. The reverse legend ΑΜΙϹΟΥ ΕΛΕΥΘΕΡΑϹ ΕΤ ϹΙΔ identifies the issuing city as the 'free city of Amisus' along with the local civic era date ϹΙΔ (year 214 of the Amisene era, corresponding to 182–184 AD). |
