| Reverse description | A tetrastyle temple with four columns is depicted in elevation, enclosing a nude statue of Apollo standing facing right, holding an arrow in the extended hand and resting his opposite arm upon a column support. Two torches flank the cult statue within the intercolumniation, referencing the deity's association with light and prophecy. The architectural rendering is characteristic of provincial civic coinage celebrating local cult sites, with the legend identifying the issuing city of Apollonia pros Rhyndacon in Mysia. The composition emphasizes the religious and civic identity of the community through its patron deity. |
