| Reverse description | Tyche standing left in full figure, turreted and draped, holding a cornucopia in her left arm and extending her right hand to present a small cult statue, likely a statuette of Artemis or another deity associated with Nysa. The figure is rendered in the typical provincial style of mid-third-century Asia Minor, with the attributes of civic fortune clearly articulated. The encircling Greek legend naming the grammateus Aurelius Tryphosianos, son of Aristandros, and identifying the issuing city of the Nysaeans runs around the full periphery of the coin. |
