| Reverse description | The personification of Tyche, the city goddess of Amaseia, stands facing left in full figure, wearing a kalathos (modius) upon her head as an emblem of civic fortune and abundance. She holds a ship's rudder downward in her right hand, symbolising the city's destiny and guidance, and a cornucopia in her left arm, signifying prosperity. The date formula ΕΤ ΡϘ (year 199 of the Pontic era, corresponding to 187/188 AD) appears in the lower field flanking the figure. The surrounding Greek legend, arranged around the dotted border, records the honorific titles of Amaseia as metropolis and neokoros. |
