| Reversbeschreibung | Demeter standing in a biga drawn by two winged serpents, moving to the right, holding a flaming torch in each raised hand. The goddess is depicted in flowing drapery, her figure dominating the reverse field above the serpent-drawn chariot, a distinctive iconographic type associated with the chthonic and agricultural aspects of Demeter worship. The reverse legend, arranged around the type, records the name of the local magistrate responsible for the coinage and the ethnic of the issuing city. The composition reflects the high artistic quality typical of the civic bronzes struck at Nysa in Lydia during the Antonine period. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
Nysa-on-the-Maeander, a prosperous city in Lydia's Maeander valley, retained substantial civic autonomy under Rome and used bronze coinage aggressively as a vehicle for local political display. The magistrate named in this legend — Aurelius Diodotos, grammateus — held the office of city secretary, a position that by the second century had evolved into one of the most prestigious civic appointments in Asia Minor, often held by wealthy local elites competing for the honor of appearing on the city's bronze issues.
The dating corresponds to the first year of Marcus Aurelius's sole reign following Antoninus Pius's death in March 161.
