Reverse description Central cult idol or xoanon of a local deity, depicted as a stylized pillar-like figure set upon a base and flanked on either side by two standing attendant figures in frontal pose, each raising one arm in a gesture of veneration or offering. The composition is hieratic and strongly provincial in character, reflecting indigenous Pisidian religious iconography. The legend ΕΤΕΝΝΕΩΝ runs around the periphery, identifying the issuing civic community. Dotted border frames the entire design. The overall style is typical of the civic bronze issues of Etenna under the Severan emperors.
