| Obverse lettering | ΑΥΤ Κ Γ Μ ΚΥΙ ΤΡΑΙΑΝΟϹ ΔΕΚΙΟϹ (Translation: Emperor Caesar Gaius Messius Quintus Traianus Decius) |
| Reverse description | Cult statue of Artemis Anaïtis standing facing, crowned with a kalathos, her arms extended outward in an epiphanic gesture, riding in a biga drawn by two stags moving to the right. This imagery reflects the prominent local veneration of Artemis Anaïtis at Hypaepa, a syncretic Anatolian-Greek goddess of fertility and the hunt. The reverse legend distributed around the field records the name and title of the presiding strategos responsible for the coin's issue. |
