(Translation: Emperor Caesar Gaius Julius Verus Maximinus)
Reverse description Artemis, the patron goddess of Ephesus, depicted in dynamic stride advancing to the right, her right hand reaching back over the shoulder to draw an arrow from the quiver slung at her back, her left hand extended holding a bow. To the right, a hound runs alongside her in the same direction, a standard attribute of the goddess in her aspect as divine huntress. The reverse legend ΕΦΕϹΙΩΝ ΤΡΙϹ ΝΕΩΚΟΡΩΝ runs around the field, affirming Ephesus's prestigious status as a thrice-neocorate city, an honour central to the city's civic identity during the Severan era.
