Reverse description Heracles recumbent to the left, his muscular figure shown at rest, holding a club in one hand and reclining against what appears to be a vessel or rock (uncertain due to wear). The figure occupies the majority of the reverse field in a composition typical of provincial bronzes from the Pergamene conventus. A horizontal ground line divides the central type from the lower exergual field, where part of the civic legend is inscribed. The reverse legend, partially distributed around the upper periphery and in the lower exergual zone, names the local strategos responsible for the issue.
