| Reverse description | A lion crouches to the left in the central field, rendered with naturalistic musculature, its tail curling upward behind it. In the background rises the distinctive crenellated city wall of Sardis, depicted in schematic form as a turreted fortification, serving as a civic emblem of the issuing city. The multi-line Greek magistrate legend and neocorate title appear in the lower exergual area and surrounding field, attesting to the city's double neocorate status and the name of the presiding archon. |
