| Reverse description | Amazon Smyrna, the eponymous founder and personification of the city, standing facing with head turned to the left, dressed in a chlamys. She holds a patera in her right hand, a double axe (labrys) in her left hand, and a pelta (Amazon's crescent shield). At her feet rests a prow, symbolising Smyrna's maritime prominence. The surrounding legend proclaims the city's triple neocorate status and primacy in Asia. |
