| Reverse description | Turreted Tyche, the civic goddess of fortune, standing to the left in flowing robes, her head crowned with a mural or turreted crown symbolizing the city's protection. She holds a ship's rudder in her right hand, resting its base on the ground, and a cornucopia (horn of plenty) in her left arm, emblematic of prosperity. The figure stands on a podium or low base, rendered in the standard provincial iconographic convention. The ethnic legend ΗΡΑΚΛΕΩΤΩΝ ('of the Heracleans') is disposed around the field within a beaded border. |
