Reverse description Full-length standing figure of Dionysus facing left, depicted in a relaxed contrapposto stance. The god holds a thyrsus — the pinecone-tipped staff emblematic of his cult — in his right hand, while his extended left hand holds an indistinct object, possibly a patera or kantharos. The figure is lightly draped, with drapery falling over the lower body. The Greek civic and regnal date legend surrounds the type, identifying the issuing city of Amisus as a free city and recording the local Pontic year ϹΟΒ (year 272 of the Pontic era, corresponding to AD 241).
