| 背面描述 | Two goddesses standing facing one another in the field: at left, Athena stands facing with head turned to the right, holding an upright spear in her right hand and resting her left hand upon a large round shield set on the ground; at right, Demeter stands facing with head turned to the left, holding ears of grain in her right hand and a long sceptre in her left. The composition reflects the civic and religious significance of Amisus, with the Greek legend distributed around the periphery and incorporating the local era date and a partially retrograde element. |

Amisus held the title of "free city" under Roman administration — a status that granted it the right to mint its own bronze coinage, a privilege jealously maintained from the Hellenistic period onward. The civic year notation, likely ϹΞ (year 260) in the local Amisene era, anchors this piece to the opening of Maximinus Thrax's reign, a soldier-emperor who never set foot in Rome and whose legitimacy depended heavily on provincial loyalty demonstrated through exactly this kind of locally-struck honorific coinage.
The retrograde OM retrograde element in the legend remains a matter of scholarly dispute — whether a die-cutter's error or an abbreviated title imperfectly understood by a local engraver working from a distant exemplar.
