| Reverse description | A large central tetrastyle temple housing a cult statue of Artemis Ephesia standing facing, adorned with kalathos and characteristic lateral supports, flanked on either side by two smaller neocorate temples shown in three-quarter perspective, each with two frontal columns enclosing an imperial cult statue, representing the temples of Domitian and Hadrian, commemorating Ephesus's double neocorate status. The reverse legend ΕΦΕϹΙΩΝ ΔΙϹ ΝΕΩΚΟΡΩΝ, meaning 'of the Ephesians, twice neocoros,' encircles the architectural composition, asserting the city's proud religious and civic distinction within the Roman provincial hierarchy. |
