| Reverse description | Kore (Persephone) standing facing, holding poppies on either side, positioned between two tetrastyle temples shown in frontal elevation, each enclosing a cult statue within its colonnade and surmounted by an agonistic crown symbolising the city's festival rights. The composition emphasises Sardis's dual neocorate status and its deep religious associations with the cult of Kore. The reverse legend is distributed around the field referencing the presiding magistrate and the city's honorific titles. |
