| Reverse description | Octastyle temple façade with eight columns, enclosing a frontal cult statue of Artemis Ephesia (the Ephesian Artemis) standing facing, adorned with a kalathos (cylindrical headdress) and supported lateral figures; the pediment of the temple features a globe in the tympanum. The full circular legend ΕΦΕΣΙΩΝ ΔΙΣ ΝΕΩΚΟΡΩΝ ΠΡΩΤΩΝ ΑΣΙΑΣ proclaims Ephesus as 'twice neokoros and first of Asia,' a prestigious civic title. The architectural rendering reflects the celebrated Temple of Artemis, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. |
