Beschrijving keerzijde Asclepius stands facing at left, head turned to the right, holding his serpent-entwined staff (caduceus), confronting Hygieia who stands at right facing left, extending a patera from which a serpent feeds. Between the two principal deities, Telesphorus stands frontally, rendered as a small cloaked and hooded figure in his characteristic conical mantle. The reverse legend in Greek encircles the scene, naming the strategos Claudius Tertullus and recording Pergamum's preeminent status as a thrice-neocorate city. The composition is typical of Pergamene civic bronze coinage, emphasizing the city's celebrated association with the Asclepian healing cult.

Aanvullende informatie

Pergamum's claim to three neokorate titles — recorded in the inscription on this very coin — was the product of decades of competitive civic one-upmanship with Smyrna and Ephesus across the koine of Asia. The third neokorate was granted under Elagabalus, making coins that advertise it a product of the years immediately following his assassination in 222. The strategos Tertullus, named in the magistrate formula, is otherwise unattested outside the numismatic record.
