| Reverse description | Two figures — identified as Julia Maesa and the emperor Elagabalus — stand facing one another across a flaming tripod altar, each extending a hand over the flame in a sacrificial gesture. A draped female figure stands to the rear, likely a personification or attendant deity. The composition is rendered in the provincial style typical of Bithynian civic coinage, with the figures presented in three-quarter view. The Greek civic legend is distributed around the field and in the lower exergual area. |
