| Reverse description | Full-length statue of Heracles depicted nude, standing left on a rectangular base, holding a patera in his extended right hand, with a club and the Nemean lion skin in his left. The composition reflects a cult statue type associated with the sanctuary of Heracles on the island of Cos, rendered in a classicising style typical of provincial bronze coinage of the Antonine period. The ethnic legend ΚΩΙΩΝ appears in the field, identifying the issuing civic authority. |
