| Beschrijving keerzijde | Hygieia, goddess of health, standing to the right and feeding a large serpent from her outstretched hand, facing Asclepius who leans to the left upon his serpent-entwined staff. The two deities are depicted in a confronting composition typical of Anatolian civic bronze coinage, emphasizing the curative religious tradition of the mint city. The figures are rendered in the round, with drapery details visible on both, and the reverse legend is distributed around the field in two lines or around the periphery. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Cyme, one of the oldest Greek settlements on the Aeolian coast, retained the right to strike civic bronze under Roman rule — a privilege that carried real political weight. The magistrate name preserved in the legend, Aurelius Elpidephoros, is known from a small cluster of issues under the joint reign, suggesting he held his position briefly but struck across multiple denominations. The neokoros title claimed by the city signals Cyme's active competition with neighboring Smyrna and Pergamon for imperial cult honors.
