| Reverse description | Two deities stand facing one another in the field: to the left, Apollo Smintheus is depicted standing frontally, bearing a quiver at his shoulder, holding a patera in one hand and a bow in the other, referencing his celebrated local cult at Alexandria Troas and the broader Mysian region; to the right, Asclepius stands frontally, holding his characteristic serpent-entwined staff (kerykeion). The composition reflects Pergamum's strong religious identity, particularly its renowned sanctuary of Asclepius (Asclepion). The reverse legend naming the gymnasiarch Nympidiас Berenikе as eponymous magistrate runs around the field, providing a valuable civic dating criterion. |
