| Reverse description | Tyche, the tutelary goddess of the city, stands facing left in the centre of the field, clad in a long chiton and polos. She holds a rudder in her right hand, symbolising the guidance of fortune, and a cornucopia in her left, representing abundance. Behind her to the right rises a tree, a localising element frequently employed in Mysian civic coinage. The composition is enclosed within a partially visible circular legend, with the magistrate's name and civic ethnic distributed across the field and exergue. |
