| Reverse description | Draped bust of Aratus, the eponymous founding hero of Pompeiopolis, facing right and viewed from the front, set within the field of the coin in typical provincial civic portraiture. The bust is rendered in a bearded, heroic manner consistent with numismatic depictions of mythological or historical oikists on Cilician civic bronzes. The surrounding Greek legend identifies the issuing city and records the civic year. The coin exhibits a thick green and earthen patina with significant surface encrustation, obscuring finer details of the design. |
