| Reverse description | Full-length figure of Asclepius standing facing left, clad in himation, his weight resting on a tall serpent-entwined staff (kerykeion) held in his right hand. The god of medicine is rendered in a calm, hieratic posture typical of provincial Antonine bronzes. A circular Greek legend in two lines occupies the field and periphery, referencing the local strategos Milon and the civic ethnicon of Nacrasa. |
