| Reverse description | The nymph Amaltheia, turreted and standing to the right, holds a sceptre in her right hand and cradles the infant Zeus in her left arm. At her feet to the right, a goat stands looking upward, referencing the mythological nursing of Zeus on Crete. The composition is rendered in the characteristic style of Phrygian civic bronzes, with the reverse legend ϹΥΝΝΑΔΕΩΝ distributed around the type, identifying the issuing city of Synnada. A beaded border frames the design. |
