| Reverse description | The emperor stands facing, head turned to the left, rendered in military attire including cuirass and paraptonge. He holds a spear in his left hand and extends a patera in his right hand over a lighted altar positioned at his feet. The composition reflects the standard sacrificial imagery common to provincial coinage of Asia Minor, emphasizing the emperor's role as high priest and commander. The reverse legend, arranged around the field, names the local magistrate responsible for the issue and celebrates Pergamum's status as a three-time neocorate city. |
