| Beschrijving keerzijde | A bull or zebu advancing right approaches a lighted altar set before a draped female figure standing right, who holds a patera in her extended right hand and rests a long staff upon her left shoulder. Behind the altar rises a tall column surmounted by an eagle with wings spread wide. The composition is characteristic of local religious iconography from Dardanus in the Troad, possibly referencing a civic sacrifice scene, with the magistrate's name and ethnic legend disposed in the field around the design. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Dardanus was a minor coastal city on the Hellespont, far more significant in Greek memory than in Roman administrative reality — it was here that Sulla and Mithridates VI negotiated the Peace of Dardanus in 85 BC, ending the First Mithridatic War on terms most of Rome considered humiliating. By the Severan period, the city's civic coinage was issued under local magistrates, with the archon Zoilos named on this piece — one of the few surviving records of his tenure.
