| Reverse description | Helios, the solar deity, stands facing left in the center of the field, his right hand raised in a gesture of benediction and his left hand holding a globe symbolizing universal dominion. The figure is rendered in the provincial Greek style typical of Lydian civic coinage, with a broad, slightly worn flan. The lengthy reverse legend, arranged in multiple lines around the periphery, identifies the issuing civic magistrate and the epithet of Tralles. The overall composition reflects the continued vitality of Greek civic coinage under the joint reign of Valerian and Gallienus. |
