| Reverse description | Aphrodite kneeling to the right within a tetrastyle or distyle columned shrine, the goddess depicted in a graceful pose while holding a mirror before her. The two flanking columns frame the central cult image in the manner of a naiskos or aedicula, emphasizing the religious significance of the type. The Greek civic legend encircles the design, recording the city name, its status as a free city, and the local civic era date ϹΞΖ (year 267 of the Pontic era). The reverse type reflects the strong local religious tradition at Amisus honoring Aphrodite. |
